“To my mind, faith and environment are inextricably connected. If we show that we love God, we act it out by caring specifically for the most marginal among us, specifically for the web of creation of which we are a part, and specifically for our own descendants.” IPL board member, Rabbi Fred Scherlinder Dobb in a conversation with Yale Climate Connections.

"Together as a congregation, and in partnerships with Montana Interfaith Power and Light and Lutherans Restoring Creation, we concentrate on actions that we can do in our time and place. The Inflation Reduction Act helps us achieve more in our creation care efforts and church missions." Hope Lutheran Church in Bozeman, MT is looking to the #InflationReductionAct to support with the cost of their recently built solar array. https://lnkd.in/ewHcWs6G

Happy second anniversary to the Inflation Reduction Act! Passed in 2022, the IRA was the single largest investment in climate in U.S. history. Since its passage, we have seen the development of new wind, solar, and battery projects across the country (many in houses of worship), the creation of new clean energy jobs, funding for environmental justice, and significant progress toward reducing our climate pollution by over 40% by the end of the decade. We celebrate this progress today, as well as the many committed, faithful advocates who made the IRA a reality, and who continue to work towards a better climate future.💚

Yesterday, our Organizing Director, Marqus Cole, alongside other Interfaith Power & Light affiliates at Interfaith Power & Light (DC.MD.NoVA) and California Interfaith Power & Light, took part in a powerful faith leader convening at The White House. The discussion centered on how houses of worship can take part in historic climate investments through the #InflationReductionAct. This includes accessing solar, battery storage, and other clean energy tech through Direct Pay and programs like Georgia BRIGHT!

Today at the White House! Over 50 selected faith leaders from across the US gathered for a convening on Climate, Clean Energy and Environmental Justice. 🏛⚡ Alongside California Interfaith Power & Light and Jacquelyn Badejo (she, her), RE-volv was grateful for the opportunity to share stories of how Direct Pay can benefit communities today. 👏 The presentation centered on Watts-Willowbrook Church of Christ’s solar journey, and how they will function as a resiliency hub for the Compton, Watts, and Willowbrook communities – providing AC during heatwaves and air filtration during poor air quality days. Jacquelyn Badejo, environmental activist and representative from the congregation shared that, “The community is becoming more familiar with solar. I would say that the Watts-Willowbrook Church of Christ going solar is a ray of hope, showcasing what is possible to other congregations and residents in the community.” The Watts-Willowbrook Church of Christ solar project was a part of the broader BIPOC Houses of Worship Initiative, aiming to accelerate the deployment of solar energy for BIPOC-led faith-based organizations. This initiative is a partnership between Interfaith Power & Light, RE-volv and Green The Church with support from National Renewable Energy Laboratory's Solar Energy Innovation Network.

Voting. It’s a matter of faith. Join us Thursday for a conversation about encouraging our faith communities to vote by preaching on the importance of voting. Register at https://lnkd.in/dtHU9sWv In an election year, expressing our faithful values through voting is one way we can bring forth a world rooted in those values. To bring forth that world, we need to make sure that people of faith are voting. That starts with preaching about the importance of voting through the lens of faith. #FaithVotes #FaithfulVoter #2024Election
