SUMMARY:Ecological Costs of War
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, May 14\, 2025\, at 10 a.m. EDT\, join the Center for Earth Ethics for a 90-minute webinar on the ecological costs of war. In partnership with the Conflict and Environment Observatory (CEOBS)\, the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies\, and the Diocese of San Diego\, this program will bring together four experts to discuss the ecological dimensions of the devastation and suffering caused by war. The panelists will explore global questions surrounding ecocide\, earth ethics and military policy\, as well as regional examples of environmental reconstruction after war. \n\n\n\nPanelists include Doug Weir (Director of CEOBS)\, Dr. Christina Bagaglio Slentz (Associate Director of Creation Care Office for Life\, Peace\, and Justice for the Diocese of San Diego)\, Dr. Olena Melnyk (Research Associate at Bern University of Applied Sciences)\, and Elaine Donderer (Project Manager at the Arava Institute). Samira Siddique (CEE Director of Strategic Initiatives) will moderate the conversation. CEE Founder and Executive Director Karenna Gore will introduce and close the program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nElaine Donderer is a professional consultant and project manager in the disaster risk reduction and nature-based solution space. Committed to creating transboundary environmental collaboration amidst political fragility\, she envisions hazards as gateways to innovation\, conceptualizing ecological challenges as transformative opportunities for more integrated natural system dynamics. Her experience spans research\, consulting and project management across sustainable design\, hydrology and humanitarian action. Having recently completed her Master’s in Disaster Management at Tel Aviv University\, the Columbia exchange and Maastricht University alumna has held numerous scholarships in earth sciences. \n\n\n\n\n\nKarenna Gore is the founder and executive director of the Center for Earth Ethics and visiting professor of practice of earth ethics at Union Theological Seminary in New York. Karenna formed CEE in 2015 to address the moral and spiritual dimensions of the climate crisis. Working at the intersection of faith\, ethics\, and ecology\, she guides the Center’s public programs\, educational initiatives\, and movement-building. She also is an ex officio faculty member of Columbia University’s Earth Institute. \n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Olena Melnyk is an associate researcher at Bern University of Applied Sciences (Switzerland)\, honorary professor at the Royal Agricultural University (UK)\, and associate professor at Sumy National Agrarian University (Ukraine). Her research focuses on environmental impact assessments of wartime activities in Ukraine\, soil remediation following mine clearance\, climate policy\, renewable energy sources\, environmental safety criteria\, sustainable resource management and post-war sustainable development. Since the onset of the war in Ukraine\, her projects addressing environmental and conflict-related issues have garnered about 700\,000 euros in support from governments in the UK and Switzerland\, as well as from philanthropic organizations and industry partners. \n\n\n\n\n\nSamira Siddique is the director of strategic initiatives at the Center for Earth Ethics. She has extensive research and advocacy experience on global climate change justice\, including the humanitarian politics of climate adaptation in the Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh. Previously\, Samira was a Mellon Foundation Fellow in Climate and Inequality at the Climate Museum. She has also been a visiting scholar at the New School’s Zolberg Institute on Migration and Mobility and the International Centre for Climate Change and Development in Bangladesh. For her research and advocacy work\, she was awarded a Public Voices Fellowship with the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication and the Op-Ed Project\, and a National Science Foundation graduate research fellowship.  \n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Christina Slentz joined the Diocese of San Diego in July 2022 as the first full-time employee dedicated to directing the ministry of creation care. She brings with her leadership experience from her service in the United States Navy\, as well as an academic background on the social impact of environmental degradation. In the spirit of Pope Francis’ Laudato Si’ encyclical\, Christina seeks to bring the issues of environmental degradation and the dire need for good stewardship to light\, unpacking dynamics of injustice and systemic forces that drive our estrangement from God\, nature and one another\, degrading our communal gift of creation. \n\n\n\n\n\nDoug Weir has undertaken research and advocacy on the polluting legacy of armed conflicts and military activities since 2005. After working on conflict pollution and the toxic remnants of war for many years\, in 2018\, he established the non-profit Conflict and Environment Observatory (CEOBS) to monitor and raise awareness of the environmental and derived humanitarian consequences of conflicts. He has contributed to a wide range of domestic\, regional\, and international initiatives on conflict and the environment\, and CEOBS’ current research focus is on Sudan and Ukraine

SUMMARY:Advocacy Speaker Sail Aboard the Clearwater | "The Rights of Nature: Reimagining Our Relationship with the Earth"
DESCRIPTION:Join CEE Founder and Executive Director Karenna Gore on the Sloop Clearwater to explore a growing paradigm shift in how we view the natural world. The idea behind the Rights of Nature is simple but powerful: instead of treating nature only as property\, we recognize natural entities—like rivers\, forests\, and mountains—as being alive\, and having agency and rights. In this talk\, Karenna will speak to the history of this novel legal strategy\, and explore what it could mean for the future of environmental protection. The talk is a practical introduction to a growing global movement that’s reshaping how we think about law\, ethics and our place in the natural world. \n\n\n\nThis sail is pay-what-you-can—registration is required. Please plan to arrive at the Dyckman Marina 30 minutes prior to the start of the sail for boarding. All guests should dress for the weather in layers and with sturdy shoes and are recommended to bring sunscreen\, a hat\, a full reusable water bottle\, and any snacks you may need.

SUMMARY:COURSE | SU 190: Climate Ethics (Online)
DESCRIPTION:ONLINE9/16\, 30 & 10/7\, 14 Tuesdays (6:45-9:15pm EST) Instructor: Karenna GoreCost: $150 \n\n\n\nClimate Ethics is a framework for examining the moral issues that have arisen within the global climate crisis\, and the implications for what to do about it. It includes framing questions such as: how do we respond to the reality that communities hurt first and most intensely by the crisis are generally those least responsible for causing it?; what are our responsibilities to future generations?; what values shape our relationships with other-than-human species and the elements of nature?; what are the threats and opportunities of proposed technological solutions?; what are the laws and social norms that undergird the status quo?; how can we create positive change? The course will provide basic literacy in climate science and case studies of impacts\, but it focuses on an understanding of the drivers of human behavior that are shaping our shared biosphere. Recognizing that the climate crisis is about more than data\, science\, and technology (as important as they are)\, Climate Ethics explores how to draw from values\, culture and spirituality to heal and protect the life-support system of the Earth.

SUMMARY:Season of Creation Interfaith Gathering
DESCRIPTION:On September 1\, 1989\, Ecumenical Patriarch Demetrios I issued a prophetic message on the urgency of care for the environment\, marking the first annual “Day of Prayer for Creation.” The message was taken up\, and in the decades since\, a Season of Creation has been observed across many Christian denominations worldwide between September 1 and October 4 (the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi\, patron saint of all animals and the environment). Over the last two years\, a seminar in Assisi attended by leaders from nearly all major denominations has been working to institute the Feast of Creation formally as a shared major feast in liturgical calendars across the Christian world—the first such achievement since 1456. This year also marks the ten-year anniversary of the late Pope Francis’ landmark ecological encyclical\, Laudato Si’: On Care for Our Common Home. \n\n\n\nThe Interchurch Center\, in 2025\, will honor and participate in this process by adding a Season of Creation Interfaith Gathering to its own calendar. We recognize that\, as inspiring and important as the Feast of Creation will be among the Christian churches\, the integrity of creation is a bedrock for interfaith collaboration and fraternity far more broadly\, and we take the opportunity to recommit our diverse religious communities\, hand in hand\, to moral and institutional responsibility to the Earth of which we are a part. \n\n\n\nThe gathering—on Wednesday\, October 1\, 2025\, 12:00-1:00 pm—will be hosted by Graymoor Ecumenical & Interreligious Institute (GEII) and the Interfaith Center of New York (ICNY)\, in collaboration with the Interchurch Center’s Committee on Ecumenical\, Interfaith\, and Community Concerns (CEICC) and Union Theological Seminary’s Center for Earth Ethics (CEE). \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWednesday\, October 1\, 202512:00-1:00 pm EasternThe Interchurch Center Chapel61 Claremont AvenueNew York\, NY 10115In-person and livestreamed: YouTube link to follow

SUMMARY:Science and Spirituality: An Ethical Stocktake Dialogue to Inspire COP30

SUMMARY:Round Table | "Climate Justice Now" Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, March 5\, CEE Executive Director Karenna Gore will join a roundtable discussion marking the launch of “Climate Justice Now: Crossing Disciplines to Combat our Planetary Crisis”—a new “multidisciplinary book that offers a critical exploration of debates on climate justice across the natural sciences\, social sciences and humanities.” Karenna will join Jennifer Hadden and Emily H. G. Cooperdock of Brown University\, and Michael Brownstein of CUNY to discuss the new volume and challenges currently facing the climate justice movement. \n\n\n\nA livestream link is available for those unable to attend the in-person event. \n\n\n\nBook Description: Climate change is not only an environmental crisis but also a catalyst for worsening socioeconomic inequalities\, leading to widespread calls for “climate justice.” This multidisciplinary book offers a comprehensive exploration of debates on climate justice across the natural sciences\, social sciences\, and humanities. Synthesizing these divergent approaches\, it develops a new conceptual framework that transcends disciplinary divides\, providing a deeper and richer understanding of climate justice. Contributors make an urgent case that climate justice must be centered within and across disciplines\, creating a roadmap for multidisciplinary research and pedagogy on the climate crisis. Featuring a wide range of voices and actionable recommendations\, this timely book illuminates how scholarship on climate change can become a call to action.

SUMMARY:The Earth in Trust: Law\, Faith Traditions\, and the Work Of Environmental Accountability
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, April 23\, CEE Executive Director Karenna Gore will join Adam D Orford (Fordham Law School)\, Kit Kennedy (NRDC) and Hakan Yesilova (The Fountain Magazine) for an interdisciplinary conversation hosted by Fordham University’s Institute on Religion\, Law & Lawyer’s Work\, The Pastrana Foundation\, and the Peace Islands Institute.

SUMMARY:Spirit of Place\, Spirit of Earth: An Eco-Justice Training
DESCRIPTION:How do we recognize and honor our innate belonging to the Earth? How is this sense of ecological belonging a spiritual and religious matter? What does it teach us about justice\, and how do we tend it within our communities and across the bounds of space\, time\, and species? How are these lessons learned and felt from direct experience with the land? \n\n\n\nThe Center for Earth Ethics will explore these questions and more at our faith\, spirituality and climate training\, which is returning to the Ashokan Center in New York’s Hudson Valley this June.This program\, designed for leaders and members of all faiths and spiritual traditions\, will address climate science and policy\, bioregionalism\, environmental and climate justice\, spiritual and religious perspectives on ecological belonging\, and the power of collective action and moral courage. \n\n\n\nLearn More and Apply
