Statement of Conscience on Global Warming / Climate Change

The threat of Global Warming/Climate Change and what we can do about it is outlined in the 2006 UUA Statement of Conscience. Earth is our home. We are part of this world and its destiny is our own. Life on this planet will be gravely affected unless we act soon. All countries will be affected, developing countries most severely, but also including developed countries. There is no safe haven.

The UU Green Sanctuary Program

Congregations and congregants working together to restore Earth and renew Spirit.

The newest version of the Green Sanctuary Manual is now available online!

The Green Sanctuary Program, originally nurtured and managed by the Unitarian Universalist Ministry for Earth, was designed to give roots and wings to the vision that, together, we can create a world in which all people make reverence, gratitude, and care for the living Earth that is central to our lives.

Voluntary participation in the Green Sanctuary Program provides a framework for congregations and congregants to proclaim and live out their commitment to the Earth.

  • Provides the framework for congregations to begin specific projects and activities that lead to recognition as a Green Sanctuary through candidacy and then accreditation.

  • Invites congregations to embark on an exploration of what it means to live today within a religious community on an imperiled Earth.

  • Is a way for all Unitarian Universalists to join our efforts, both symbolically and explicitly, in becoming stewards of the Earth.

UUSC Water and Climate Change

Examining the Water Crisis and Climate Change

UUSC understands that there is a global water crisis, which is the product of shifting and competing political and economic interests, depletion from environmental contamination, climate change, over-extraction and increasing population. As a human rights organization, we recognize the urgent need to respond. More people are losing their access to clean affordable water in the United States and overseas, and too often, the victims are poor people, women, and racial and ethnic minorities.
