TAKE ACTION

The Big Bold Jewish Climate Fest is for people who want to activate Jewish values to move the needle on climate change. We believe the time has come to make climate change a central moral issue of the Jewish community. In this crucial moment in history, Jewish communities have the opportunity and obligation to show up in all of our power in the movement for a just and sustainable world for all, for generations to come.

Let’s join together to confront the climate crisis with Big Bold Jewish Climate Action and spiritual audacity.  Here are three ways we’re asking everyone to put our Jewish values into action this Tu BiShvat during the Big Bold Jewish Climate Fest:

 

Our Voices are Stronger Together.

Add your name to call on President-elect Biden, his administration, and members of Congress to take these seven climate actions in their first 100 days in office. If every person who attends the Big Bold Jewish Climate Fest adds their name and invites their friends to join, we can maximize our impact as a Jewish community to usher in a decade of real climate action! We’ll deliver the signatures to the Biden team and members of Congress.

You can also add your name to this letter written by Rabbi Sharon Brous and Rabbi Rachel Nussbaum about our Jewish communal commitment.


Actions Matter: Commit to be Part of the Solution

Choose actions from this list -- like reducing household energy use and buying local -- that you can take over six weeks to develop a ritual practice that sustains the soul and connects us with our ability to be part of change. You’ll get support along the way!


Get Your Community Involved

  • Make your congregation or organization more climate friendly. Sign your congregation up for the Hazon Seal of Sustainability.

  • Gather your friends, fellow congregants, or organization together and start a Dayenu Circle –a group of people working together on systemic, structural solutions to the climate crisis like putting millions of people back to work building a 100% clean-energy economy and holding polluters accountable.

Together we can bring forth a more just and sustainable world!
