United States
Приєднався 20 бер 2014
Minnesota Interfaith Power & Light (MNIPL) works in partnership with communities of faith, religion, conscience, and spiritual practice at the intersection and climate justice and racial justice. This multifaith movement is co-creating a just and sustainable world through practical action, systemic change, and spiritual grounding. Together, we build transformative power and bring the lights of people’s unique gifts to the urgency of the climate crisis. Since our founding in 2004, we have grown the multifaith climate movement in Minnesota and across the United States by empowering communities to take action that is authentic, effective, and energizing.
