The Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), the UU Service Committee
(UUSC), UU Ministry for Earth, and the network of UU Legislative
Ministries and State Advocacy Networks are joining together to celebrate
Earth Day Sunday—April 20th—in our congregations and to advocate
with one voice for national environmental legislation that will be
effective in reducing our nation’s carbon footprint on the planet
without benefiting corporations at the expense of low-income families
and communities of color.

Our gratitude for our earth is heightened by our anxiety for its health
as we confront global warming and the perilous changes it brings. This
spring as we Unitarian Universalists, descendants of Emerson and Thoreau,
celebrate Earth Day, let us work together to ensure the continued seasons
of rebirth and renewal we hold dear. Please make this Earth Day Sunday
advocacy campaign part of your services and coffee hour.  Please let
Kat Liu, Assistant Director of the UUA Washington Office for Advocacy
(environm...@uua.org), know that your congregation participated!
