PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • January 12, 2023
I know of no religion that does not task the human species with stewardship and peaceful co-existence with all the rest of creation. I am part of the generation that holds up to 70% of the disposable income in our country and as I think of my legacy and what I will pass on to the next generation, I want that wealth and what I have left of energy and vision for system change to go to reversing the damage we have done. There are many organizations working tirelessly toward divestment in fossil fuels and conversion to green energy. It is in these organizations that I find hope. I urge you to join one of these organizations. If not now, when? If not us, who? ~ The Rev. Dr. Judith Blanchard, Freeport
