Mar 29, 2023 | Beacon, Climate, Justice, News

The Earth and Climate Action Ministry Team (ECAM) suggests the following options for Earth Month—APRIL!

Attend Issaquah’s Sustainability Fair on Sunday, April 16 between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. at the Pickering Barn near COSTCO—1730 10th Ave NW, Issaquah WA 98027. They are offering kid activities, demonstrations, food and coffee, sustainable products, touch a truck PLUS a mini field trip at 11:00 a.m. Visit the many participating environmental groups and sustainability vendors. And make sure you play to see our own John Chmaj with a musical performance from 1:00-1:30 p.m.

Participate in Eastside Climate Challenge, an online action game to become more earth friendly. Play against your own individual or family goals or compete in a community group. Select the actions you want to take and automatically see your carbon footprint lower. Begin in spring or summer with the support of community coordinator Nicole Fues. Get started at this website: https://eastsideclimatechallenge.org/

ECAM meets monthly via zoom to promote earth friendliness. If you have questions or are interested in participating in ECAM please contact Kristi Weir.
