Amy Brooks Paradise of Greenfaith.org , a global, multifaith, grassroots network working to protect creation and resist environmental destruction around the world. She previously served as the Education Director for the Regional AIDS Interfaith Network in Charlotte, NC and also as the Pastor for the UU Fellowship of Lake Norman in NC. She lives outside Charlotte with her partner and daughter. “We work with people around the world who are most impacted by climate change, ” Amy says. “ We encourage people to get involved in local climate issues and make different choices that protect creation .” Check out their website to see some of their grassroots campaigns. “We all see that natural disasters are bigger, more catastrophic and happening more often and everywhere,” she continues. “Scientifically, it is proven our climate is getting warmer, and our use of fossil fuels is the main contributor to global warming. Why is it okay to continue to use fossil fuels?\" \"The fossil fuel companies created a massive disinformation campaign that became politicized and promoted by politicians. We're now living in a world that is breaking down because the global economy depends on fossil fuel. I'm excited to see so many countries embracing renewable energy, and people of faith involved in these struggles. ” She encourages each one of us to get involved: \"Find your people, find your community, choose your issue, get training, start showing up in public and doing the work. We are made for times like this, this is exactly what people in faith are for!\" Put your faith into action and join Greenfaith today! beatitudescenter.org johndear.org greenfaith.org https://fatherjohndear.substack.com/","meta_description":"On today’s new episode of “The Nonviolent Jesus Podcast,” I speak with Rev.
