The communities losing their water, their coastlines, their harvests, and their homes first are not the ones who created this crisis. This week we center the communities navigating survival and resistance, and the leaders rising from within them.
Week 3: Culture, Creativity and Sustainability (Apr 15 to 21).
Art is a gift that can help us heal, speak truth to power, and shape what happens next. The stories we tell about the Earth determine how we treat it. This week we center creatives whose profound work helps us to reflect, connect, and build a different world.
Week 2: Faith in Action and Earth Care (April 8 to 14).
Our fates, human, animal, and elemental, are bound together. When you harm the land, you are literally damaging a piece of the universal whole that you inhabit. This is not a simple religious metaphor, but an invitation into faithful practice. This week we center faith leaders and communities who are strong examples of living this theology through action.
Week 1: Indigenous Earth Wisdom (April 1 to 7).
Colonial powers branded Indigenous peoples as primitive “savages” precisely because their knowledge systems threatened economies built on ownership, extraction, and domination. The erasure was intentional, and it was thorough. What has survived has done so because people have carried it in their bodies, their ceremonies, their languages, and their children. This week we return to those who keep sacred knowledge alive.
Earth and Spirit: Sacred Stories of Sustainability
April invites us into reverence. It is a time to remember that the Earth is not a resource to be consumed; it is a living web of relationships to which we belong. Across cultures and faith traditions, caring for the land has always been inseparable from caring for one another.
