Environmental Action

The temple bell stops.
But the sound keeps coming
out of the flowers.

The Environmental Action Initiative is currently exploring Food Waste as a Study-Action Issue.
First Unitarian Society has been a certified green
sanctuary since 2006. The Green Sanctuary Designation means that FUS has
completed the UUA’s Green Sanctuary. We live out our commitment to the Earth by
creating sustainable lifestyles for our faith community and its members. We are
committed to creating a religious community that has a fundamental commitment
with living in harmony with the Earth. To learn more about Green Sanctuary status, including downloading the Green Sanctuary Manual, click here.
Our
current focus is on Food Waste and implementing the Ethical Eating Statement of Conscience passed at this year's GA.
Our
five broad goals are to:
- Build a
connection between spiritual practice and environmental consciousness;
- Challenge
and work to heal environmental injustices.
- Build
awareness of environmental issues;
- Encourage
personal lifestyle changes; and
- Motivate
community action on environmental issues.
