What Is This Thing Called Green Sanctuary?
 |
Are we redecorating the sanctuary?
Is this our new color palette?
Exactly what is this all about?
How do we get involved in making a difference? |
The UUCA Board of Trustees established a Green Sanctuary Committee on November 17, 2004. The purpose of the Committee is to work toward certification of UUCA as a "Green Sanctuary", a status recognized by and conferred through the UU General Assembly and the UU Ministry for Earth [link]. Our PROPOSED Environmental Sustainability Policy is available for review by clicking PESP.
Our intention is to seek recognition as a Green Sanctuary church.
