2012: The Year of Ethics of Energy
As people of faith, how do we use energy wisely, sustainably, and in keeping with our Biblical teachings? It’s a challenging question with no easy answer, and it has come up a lot in the news, in our houses of worship, and in our faith and eco-justice circles a lot lately.
We thought the best way to tackle this and other questions would be to devote this year (2012) to exploring the Ethics of Energy.
This year we will:
- Dedicate our Earth Day Sunday Resource to energy. (Click here to download your copy of “The Ethics of Energy” for free. )
- Feature stories of congregations and communities undertaking creative responses to energy use and in turn helping us understand and answer some of these hard questions. Click here to send us your stories.
- Host six webinars exploring different energy challenges and opportunities being addressed around the country.
Our first webinar was Smart Grid: Using Emerging Technologies for Energy Stewardship. It featured speakers from Silver Spring Networks, Global Green, and the NCC Poverty Initiative. A recording of the webinar will be available soon.
Please let us know if you have questions, stories, or specific issues you would like us to address over the course of the year.
