SUMMARY:Science and Spirituality: An Ethical Stocktake Dialogue to Inspire COP30
DESCRIPTION:Why do we deny or ignore what both science and other ways of knowing teach us about the climate crisis? How can we learn from spiritual traditions and practices to live in balance with nature? \n\n\n\nJoin the Center for Earth Ethics and Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology online on Wednesday\, November 5\, at 1 p.m. (ET) for “Science and Spirituality: An Ethical Stocktake Dialogue to Inspire COP30.” Part of the Global Ethical Stocktake—an initiative of the COP30 presidency led by Minister of the Environment and Climate of Brazil\, Marina Silva—this dialogue will inform the GES report for COP30 and amplify the newly released Living Earth Community website. \n\n\n\nKey Questions \n\n\n\nThe Global Ethical Stocktake seeks answers to five strategic questions. Each dialogue must address at least one of them: \n\n\n\n\nWhy\, even when aware of the risks\, do we deny or ignore what science and traditional knowledge tell us about the climate crisis?\n\n\n\nWhy do we maintain models of production and consumption that harm the most vulnerable and contradict the goals of Mission 1.5°C?\n\n\n\nWhat can be done to ensure that wealthy countries accelerate their transitions and contribute financially to the most vulnerable?\n\n\n\nWhat cultural or spiritual traditions and practices from your community teach how to live in balance with nature?\n\n\n\nHow can we mobilize more people\, leaders\, businesses\, and nations to support fair and ethical change? What values can inspire this mission?\n\n\n\n\nHost: Karenna Gore | Executive Director of  Center for Earth Ethics  \n\n\n\nModerator:  Mary Evelyn Tucker | Co-Director of Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology\, Living Earth Community \n\n\n\nParticipants: \n\n\n\nLyla June Johnston | Musician\, scholar and community organizer of Diné (Navajo)\, Tsétsêhéstâhese (Cheyenne) and European lineages \n\n\n\nUrsula Goodenough | Professor Emerita of biology at Washington University in St. Louis; Author of “Sacred Depths of Nature.” \n\n\n\nMelanie Harris | Professor of Black feminist thought and womanist theology at Wake Forest School of Divinity; Director of Food Health and Ecological Well-Being Program  \n\n\n\nMirian Vilela | Executive Director of Earth Charter International Secretariat\, Executive Director of the Center for Education for Sustainable Development at University for Peace \n\n\n\nSteve Kolmes | Editor of Environment: Science and Policy for Sustainable Development; Professor Emeritus of environmental studies at University of Portland

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. Panelists will explore how interfaith perspectives and legal expertise engage the urgent challenges of environmental and climate justice.  \n\n\n\nRecent debates over climate governance and regulatory authority have underscored how contested the foundations of environmental responsibility and accountability remain. Against this backdrop\, this interdisciplinary conversation will highlight how legal frameworks intersect with enduring religious traditions of stewardship\, solidarity and care for vulnerable communities. Grounded in the pursuit of the common good\, panelists will examine how law and faith traditions can deepen responsibility\, sustain hope\, and inspire compassionate action for the Earth and for one another in an ecological age. \n\n\n\nThe event is hosted in collaboration with Fordham Environmental Law Advocates and the Center for Earth Ethics.

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
