NCIPL Earth Day Events 2020

April 21, 2020 Leave a Comment

Earth Day Events 
Although many of our faith traditions throughout history have held sacred the fact that life is a gift and that our planet which nurtures and sustains life is also a gift, tomorrow is April 22, 2020, which is the 50th anniversary of Earth Day! 

The very first Earth Day sparked the passage of many bedrock environmental standards and the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency.

Today the urgency of acting to protect the sacred gift of the Earth has never been greater – we are now in an environmental emergency, a climate breakdown.

To meet this moment, together we must build the largest, most diverse online mobilization in history this week. Will you join this global united movement as we build toward the next half century of faithful, bold, and just action for our planet?
