Environmental Stewardship Pledge
The Earth is a living entity to which we are inextricably bound, and everything and everyone is precious. With this understanding stewardship begins.
There is enough. We can actively engage in changing the paradigm from scarcity to abundance. We can grow food, buy local, maintain clean water and air, consume less, move to renewables, and do all that we can. Abundance is having everything you need when you need it. Take only what is needed, ensuring a future of abundance for our children. Come together. Engage with organizations and celebrate diversity in community. Celebrate life. We are here, now. Celebrate! Peace first. There is always a way to make things better. Peace is fundamental to everything we can accomplish. “Live simply so that others may simply live” - Mahatma Gandhi

We will not be silent in the face of intolerance and the ignorance of hate. We will champion voices of peace, unity and the well-being of people and the earth.
We will protect our LGBTQ+ brothers and sisters and especially the youth who are being victimized.
We will stand for diversity, inclusion and equity for all people and we will fight to maintain historical accuracy. As we share our stories, we will not omit the struggles of Native, Black, Latino, Asian and Muslim people, immigrants, workers, women, those of lessor means and all who have suffered throughout our history. We do this for our collective healing.
We will uphold human rights and the dignity of every person. We will work to build strong communities. We will continue to promote peace both within and around us.
We join the voices throughout the world that demand all governments seek peace first and support the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and all treaties recognizing the dignity of all people. We join the voices of the world calling for environmental justice and to help those who are being confronted by climatic challenges.
We demand the United States government upholds International Law, seeks peace in the Mid East, recognizes the state of Palestine, refunds UNRWA and stops funding Israel's war.
