Environmental Actions: Live Oak Unitarian Universalist Fellowship

Both our seventh and sixth Principles speak to our concern for the environment: Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part and The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all.

It is important to us that we do what we can as individuals and as a community to protect our environment. In addition, we feel strongly that we should play a role in helping others recognize the needs of our world. We are just beginning our efforts in this area. Watch for more opportunities to participate soon.

A list of some of the things we've done:

• Co-sponsored NorCal Climate Rally (9-21-14)
• Several members have been trained by Pachamama Alliance to facilitate climate work
• Participated in 10-10-10 Work Parties.
• Participated in 350 International Day of Climate Action.
• A number of members walk, bike, and/or carpool to our services.
• We use very little paper. Almost all communications are by email.
• We recycle the paper we do use, plus cardboard, plastic, metal, and glass.
• We use china plates, bowls, and cups, stainless flatware, and cloth napkins.
• We carefully separate and properly bag our biodegradable and compostable items. 
• We purchase green cleaning supplies.
• We continue to look for more ways to be friendly to the environment.
