The Bishops of Massachusetts are urging us to respond to the Climate Emergency with four steps:

Pray—Learn—Act—Advocate. Today we highlight LEARN.

Congregations are encouraged to convene conversations and educational events around such topics as:

how tackling the climate crisis connects with efforts to alleviate poverty, fight racial and social injustice, and defend human life;

how eco-theology and eco-spirituality can guide us in the days ahead;

how to cultivate the values and practices that liberate us from the consumerism, hyper-individualism, and violence of the dominant culture.
