Are you looking for inspiration? Here is a special movie opportunity for Faith Climate Action Week (April 17-26). Earth Vision Institute is providing a feature film for this year’s Faith Climate Action Week and they are offering a link to view the film for free online to all Interfaith Power & Light congregations, organizations, and individuals.

The movie, The Human Element, is an arresting new documentary by environmental photographer James Balog, of Chasing Ice fame.  In it he captures the lives of everyday Americans on the front lines of climate change. With rare compassion and heart, The Human Element relays captivating stories from coast-to-coast, inspiring us to reevaluate our relationship with the natural world.

The movie will be available for viewing through Sunday, April 26.  To get the link, sign up at the following site: http://salsa4.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=fUV86wIPaoa6LzQEMW5ZwsbAom8Hw65F

In addition, Hamline Church Earthkeepers will be hosting a Zoom discussion of the movie on Monday, April 27 at 5pm.  So please sign up for the link, watch the movie and then join us next Monday to reflect on it.   Of course, you are welcome to join the Zoom meeting, even if you have not seen the movie.
