Sustainable Living Interest Group
Sustainability is an approach to decision-making that ensures the health and well-being of present and future generations and that loves the children of all the species with whom we share the planet. Our goal in organizing this interest group is to provide a place for interested congregants to learn about the choices each of us can make in our daily lives to address climate change and other environmental issues. The Green Team merged with us so we also take on projects to enable B'nai Havurah to operate in a more sustainable manner. We see this as an aspect of the Jewish value of Tikkun Olam that involves embracing change in all aspects of how we live on this planet.
The topics we plan to study are:
- Plastics- For more information on reducing your use of plastics, click here.
- Food Choices
- Landscaping
- Stuff
- Transportation & Travel
- Water
Upcoming events
- summer 2024 - Sustainable landscaping in action! We'll be devoting some time every week or so to maintaining the new landscaping on the south side of B'nai east and to developing a plan for the parking lot side of the building.
- fall 2024 - TBD! Stay tuned for more information
