This #EarthDay faith communities are caring for both people & creation 🧑‍🤝‍🧑🌿 Through the Our Sacred Canopy program, Mid-City Church in #SanDiego distributed 221 trees across their neighborhood—blessing 95 families with greater access to shade, fresh fruit & the beauty of nature.

Trump promised to reduce your #energy costs. Instead he: ❌Started a war driving oil past $100/barrel ❌Killed EV tax credits ❌Rolled back fuel efficiency standards ❌Added tariffs to everything #GasPrices in CA are typically way higher than the national average. We must transition to #CleanEnergy!

To the CA legislators who voted “YES” on #AB1777, The faith community says #ThankYou for supporting the California Clean Skies Act! Now communities burdened by heavy diesel, railroad & port pollution are one step closer to breathing cleaner air! #ClimateJustice #FaithInAction

What a wonderful meeting at the Bay Area Air Quality Management District with our fellow grantees ✨ The day was full of cross-pollinating ideas amongst partners committed to public health justice & cleaner air in our region. We’re leaving inspired, aligned & grateful to do this work in community 💚
