People of faith across Wisconsin are caring for the earth by reducing the sources of climate change in their own homes and saving money in the process. The Cool Congregations stewardship
program will provide you with the tools you need to make a difference
in your home, congregation, and
community. Participants meet together in small groups to learn how
to measure their "carbon footprint" (the amount of carbon
dioxide produced by their daily activities) and how to reduce it. They
also share experiences, celebrate success, and deepen their understanding
of how creation care is rooted in their faith. 1. Download a Cool Congregations
