IPL featured on PBS: Religion & Ethics News Weekly

Interfaith Power & Light has been featured on PBS’ Religion & Ethics News Weekly for bringing together people of different faiths to be better stewards of creation by responding to global warming and by supporting changes in environmental public policy. Watch the program.
sally_new Climate change “is probably the most moral issue of our time,” says the president and founder of Interfaith Power & Light, a coalition of thousands of religious people putting their faith into action through energy stewardship. Watch extended interview with the Rev. Sally Bingham, founder and president of Interfaith Power & Light.
“We saw in our texts, in the Qur’an and Hadith, that there’s so much about protecting the earth and seeing nature as a sign for us to reflect upon, but we weren’t seeing that in our communities.” Watch extended interview with Sarah Jawald, director of Green Muslims.
If the environment is just one more important issue, “it won’t gain the traction that it needs. We need to redefine creation care as the underlying mitzvah or commandment or good deed.” Watch extended interview with Rabbi Fred Scherlinder Dobb of Congregation Adat Shalom in Maryland.
Listen to this week’s show radio-style as an alternative to watching it.
