Part of climate resilience is being prepared for disasters. SEYM Friends have met online to discuss how individuals, families, Meetings, Worship Groups, and our wider communities can respond when facing extreme events such as hurricanes, storms, rising temperatures, or other hardships.
Since 2017, John Heimburg and I have collaborated with Climate Change Theatre Action, performing as the Bohn Jeverly Theatre Troupe. Climate Change Theatre Action (CCTA) is a worldwide festival of short plays about the climate crisis presented every two years to coincide with the United Nations Conference of Parties (COP) meetings of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
Field Secretary for Earthcare Beverly Ward is available to visit Monthly Meetings and Worship Groups within SEYM to present workshops or to help them discern their leadings in advocacy or activism in care for the earth. She can meet with you in person or online.
