Unity with Nature [UwN] Committee’s function is to encourage, support, share, and bring forward Pacific Yearly Meeting Friends’ concerns, Witness, and Leadings for earth care and sustainability. Central to our concerns for the last many years is to slow and eventually stop global warming and its horrific proliferation of dire consequences for both humans and the whole ecosystem. We lift up and listen to each others’ living Testimonies caring for the earth.
UwN Committee’s page shares reports, links, and resources. Please email UwN’s current clerk with questions, comments, or suggestions or speak with any member of UwN committee. We welcome comments.
