In celebration of April as Earth Month 2014, Interfaith Council is screening a documentary film that highlights the ways people of faith are caring for creation.
"RENEWAL is the first feature-length documentary film to capture the vitality and diversity of today's religious-environmental activists. From within their Christian, Jewish, Buddhist and Muslim traditions, Americans are becoming caretakers of the Earth. With great courage, these women, men and children are re-examining what it means to be human and how we live on this planet. Their stories of combating global warming and the devastation of mountaintop removal, of promoting food security, environmental justice, recycling, land preservation, and of teaching love and respect for life on Earth are the heart of RENEWAL."
A discussion will follow the film, led by Prof. Brummel and Prof. Cohen.
