Reducing Energy Waste: The Quickest, Cheapest, and Most Effective Way to Care for Creation
Wednesday, May 25 at 7pm
Webinar hosted by St. Luke in McClean
In Laudato Si, Pope Francis lamented the waste of resources that pollutes our planet and diminishes both human and other species’ quality of life. Energy waste is a direct and significant contribution to climate change. Learn some of the practical and effective ways to minimize you own and your parish’s energy footprint and corresponding energy waste.
“The urgent challenge to protect our common home includes a concern to bring the whole human family together to seek a sustainable and integral development, for we know that things can change. The Creator does not abandon us; He never forsakes His loving plan or repents of having created us. Humanity still has the ability to work together in building our common home.” -Pope Francis, Laudato Si
