The Interfaith Environmental Network of Austin
Invites You to Attend our Monthly Symposium

7:00 pm Tuesday, November 13, 2012
at Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary
in the Hazel McCord Community Center
100 East 27th Street, in Central Austin

This month's symposium:

"Faithful Climate Action, 2.0"
Our First Annual Report, Launch, and Celebration
of Tools for Central Texas Congregations

One year ago, select members of Austin's Interfaith Environmental Network began an ambitious partnership with Climate Buddies, an all-volunteer group of climate and energy professionals. From this partnership our Energy Action Team was born, meeting three weeks out of every month to build climate mitigation tools for congregations and congregants. Our Team's efforts have proven productive!

Join us Tuesday evening: 
 

  • Presentation: on the state of the climate, Team accomplishments, and "Carbon Positive" actions implemented by Austin congregations: St. Andrew's, Central Presbyterian, Austin Zen Center, and First UU. 
     
  • Launch: "Becoming Carbon Positive" the Team manual for congregational climate action. 
     
  • Party: Birthday style reception for the Energy Action Team & event attendees. 
     

Listen, share, ask questions, and enjoy a little birthday cake!
