Net Zero or bust! How UU congregations can meet this ambitious goal!

One facet of very localized climate justice work is through our Green Sanctuary 2030 program and we invite all UU congregations to join us - either once or as part of your Green Sanctuary process. Green Sanctuary 2030: Mobilizing for Climate Justice anchors to the reality that we need to reduce emissions dramatically by 2030 if we are to avoid some of the worst impacts of climate change. 

The Green Sanctuary process provides a framework for congregations to adopt a justice-centered, comprehensive approach that can support congregations to hit Net Zero.  Our community meetings provide shared learning and mutual supports for UUs transforming their congregations through climate justice.  So, while we all know we need to reduce emissions, often the biggest question is, “how?”


The People's Church of Kalamazoo has made a commitment to cut their emissions to achieve Net Zero by 2030. Join Tom Hackley from People's Church to learn how their Green Sanctuary Team is working to meet this ambitious - and critical - goal!  Join the October Green Sanctuary Community meeting on October 18 at 4PT - 5MT - 6CT - 7 MT to learn more!


Has your congregation hit your net zero goal or are you just starting to think about it?  We want to hear from you!  We are building out a resource guide for congregations to adopt measurable and achievable goals towards net zero.  We’d love to know what you’re thinking! Complete this short form or email Environment@UUA.org to share your plans and approaches to this critical goal.
