Green Corner: Becoming Climate Champions in CNY

Article by Kip Coerper, organist and choirmaster for St. James’ Episcopal Church in Skaneateles and 2021 GreenFaith Fellow. He will offer reflections on climate justice and caring for God’s creation in this space in the months ahead. 

How do we care for God’s creation to leave it better than we found it? Do you recycle? Reuse? Drive an efficient vehicle? Use public transportation when possible? Have you had an energy audit done on your home? Do you eat sustainably produced food? This month’s “Green Corner” article will share ways we, in CNY, can address cleaning our environment and become climate champions.
