SUMMARY:San Diego Gives - Day of Giving
DESCRIPTION:From Ashes to Action: Honoring Our Climate Dead\, Protesting Fossil Fuel Banks \n\n\n\nIn the past fifty years two million people have died from extreme weather events most of which were exacerbated by climate change.  Many more will die if we do not transition speedily to renewable energy.  From 2016-2022 four big US banks–Bank of America\, Chase\, Citibank\, and Wells Fargo–have poured over one trillion dollars into the fossil fuel industry enabling its extraction and burning of the dirty energy that drives climate change.  THIS MUST STOP!!   \n\n\n\nTo protest this blood money and honor those who have died (most of whom are from developing nations)\, a memorial service and protest will be held before each of these four banks while processing with a (mock) coffin to symbolize the mounting casualties and the banks’ culpability.  On Monday\, November 13 at 11 AM\, we will meet before Bank of America at 655 W. Broadway in downtown San Diego and march to the other three.  Please register here for this crucial witness and if you can\, wear black on the day-of.  In the event of a rain storm\, we will meet on Monday\, November 20 at the same time and place. \n\n\n\nThis event is sponsored by the Interfaith Coalition for Earth Justice and partners including GreenFaith\, SanDiego350\, Third Act So Cal\, and CleanEarth4Kids.  For more information\, contact Phil Petrie at phil@icejsd.org. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAdditional info: \n\n\n\nPlease wear black if you can. \n\n\n\nRaindate:  \n\n\n\nIn the event of a rain storm we will meet on Monday\, November 20 at the same time and place \n\n\n\nBring a Sign! Suggested Slogans:-Bank Profits=Climate Deaths-End Dirty Investments\, Not Human Lives!-Honor Our Dead–End Fossil Fuel Investing NOW!-Life is Sacred. Bank Profits are Not!

SUMMARY:Ashes to Action - North County
DESCRIPTION:Ashes to Action: Honoring Our Climate Dead\, Protesting Fossil Fuel Banks \n\n\n\nClimate change is making extreme weather events like this winter’s floods and rainstorms in SoCal the new normal and there are often fatalities.  In the past fifty years approximately two million people have died from such events.  Climate change is primarily driven by the fossil fuel industry which in turn is funded by our financial sector.  From 2016-2022 four big US banks–Bank of America\, Chase\, Citibank\, and Wells Fargo–have poured over one trillion dollars into the fossil fuel industry.  THIS MUST STOP!! \n\n\n\nTo protest this blood money and honor those who have died (most of whom are from developing nations)\, a coalition of environmental groups is holding a series of memorial services/protests in different locations around San Diego.  On Friday\, April 5  1:00-2:30 PM the event will be in Solana Beach starting at Citibank\, 740 Lomas Santa Fe Dr and processing to Bank of America\, 943 Lomas Santa Fe Dr..  We will finish up at a nearby Mission Federal Credit Union to commend them for refusing to invest in fossil fuels.  Please register here for this crucial witness and if you can\, wear black on the day-of. This event is sponsored by the Interfaith Coalition for Earth Justice and partners including Third Act So Cal\, GreenFaith\, SanDiego350\, CleanEarth4Kids\, and the North County Equity and Justice Coalition.  Our action is part of this Spring’s Faiths for Climate Justice\, GreenFaith’s global call to people of faith to take action on fossil fuel divestment and investment in a sustainable future.

SUMMARY:The Kumeyaay Vision of Earth Justice: An Interview with Bobby Wallace and Sarahmarie Llyemewaa Redfern of the Barona Band of Mission Indians
DESCRIPTION:After years of ignoring indigenous peoples\, the U.S. environmental movement has embraced them as partners in protecting the integrity of ecosystems and as teachers in modeling a truly sustainable lifestyle. What are some of the traditions of earth care that the Kumeyaay lived out for thousands of years here in San Diego County and how did those practices grow out of their religion?   \n\n\n\nFor this FREE event sponsored by the Interfaith Coalition for Earth Justice\, former ICEJ Chairperson\, Rev. Dr. Beth Johnson\, will interview several members of the Kumeyaay nation including eco-justice activists Bobby Wallace and Sarahmarie Llyemewaa Redfern. Mr. Wallace and Ms. Redfern will also reflect on their life journeys as activists\, direct us toward local eco-justice issues\, and address what true justice from the U.S. might look like for the Indigenous.  \n\n\n\nJoin us on Thurs. June 27 at 7 PM at the Southeastern Live Well Center\, 5101 Market St. San Diego.  This event\, part of ICEJ’s Advancing Earth Justice series\, will be recorded for later viewing.   \n\n\n\nContact Phil Petrie at phil@icejsd.org or (619) 776-1013 for more information and please register online.

SUMMARY:February Hands in Soil: Surfrider Beach Clean-up
DESCRIPTION:Last fall ICEJ started an initiative we’re calling Hands in the Soil that pairs volunteers with monthly opportunities at various local not-for-profits providing an opportunity to get a little dirty to make our community cleaner (and more earth friendly). Saturday\, February 15 from 9-11 AM we join Surfrider for a beach clean-up at two locations: Moonlight Beach\, Encinitas and Imperial Beach – so take your pick. Someone from Surfrider will talk briefly about what to pick up\, supply you with gloves\, bags\, and pickers\, and set you free to clean the beach. Just look for the table with the big Surfrider sign on the beach and someone from ICEJ (we’ll have signs) will be there to meet you also. If you can’t stay for the whole time\, that’s never a problem either. \n\n\n\nFor more information from Surfrider go here. To contact a representative from ICEJ\, reach out to Susan Cass at Susanpanniercass@gmail.com

SUMMARY:STOP Trump's Attacks on the EPA and our Climate
DESCRIPTION:Photo courtesy of SanDiego350 \n\n\n\nWe cannot stand by while the Trump administration denies climate change in the face of the heartbreaking fires in LA\, expands fossil fuel drilling\, illegally cuts funds for renewable energy and environmental justice\, places fossil fuel executives in charge of our environment\, and paints a target on the backs of the EPA workers who are working for our health and our environment every day. \n\n\n\nStarting at the Federal Courthouse\, we’ll march to the Federal Building in downtown San Diego. We’ll rally in support of San Diego’s EPA workers who are under attack\, call out Trump’s devastating actions for our climate and our future\, and demand that San Diego and California step up climate action – including passing the state bill to make California’s largest fossil fuel polluters pay to mitigate\, remedy\, and prevent climate change costs and harms.  \n\n\n\nThis event will feature a march\, great speakers\, colorful signs and banners\, and actions to take at the event.  \n\n\n\nJoin us as we fight for our future\, for EPA workers\, and for the rule of law! \n\n\n\nSpeakers include: Prof. Jeff Severinghaus\, Scripps Institute of Oceanography climate scientist; David Fege\, retired EPA staff who opened the San Diego EPA office in 1994; Jack Shu\, former La Mesa Councilmember; Phil Petrie\, Tyler Andre\, Shayne Petkiewicz and Adeline Deig with SanDiego350; Ali Mariko Dressel\, San Diego Green New Deal Alliance; and\, Yusef Miller\, ICEJ. \n\n\n\nWe’ll have plenty of signs\, and of course your own signs are very welcome! \n\n\n\nCo-sponsored by SanDiego350

We will call forth blessings for peace and health for all inhabitants\, both human and wild\, in the embrace of the Tijuana River estuary.  The Visitor Center has displays and information including maps. The two trails are dog friendly. \n\n\n\nFor more information contact: Diana Hartel: Diana.hartel@gmail.com / 541-301-8276

SUMMARY:Unite for Climate March - ICEJ Contingent Honors Climate Dead
DESCRIPTION:As you probably know by now\, SanDiego350 and almost 50 other orgs including ICEJ are planning a Unite for Climate March to be held on Saturday\, May 3rd at 11 AM at Waterfront Park. Thousands of San Diegans will stand up for climate action\, climate justice\, and a healthy sustainable future for everyone – and fight against destructive policies that put profits over people. The urgency of climate action has never been more pressing so I hope that you can attend the March and help us get the word out to your faith community (here is a toolkit with blurbs\, flyers\, etc. Many thanks in advance for your help!!). \n\n\n\nICEJ will have a special contingent in the March honoring and mourning our climate dead. In the past fifty years approximately two million peoplehave died from climate related events and without significant reductions in carbon emissions many\, many more will die in the years to come. The Trump Administration is moving in the wrong direction by embracing fossil fuels and gutting climate science. So we will process with a cardboard coffin and climate death signs (see photo above)\, dressed in black and mostly silent.  We would love to have you and members of your community join us. We meet at the southwest corner of Waterfront Park (at the intersection of N. Harbor Drive and W. Ash St.) between 10:30 and 10:45 AM. Please reach out to your faith community and recruit members for this – and we welcome groups with their own faith community banner!   \n\n\n\nFor more information or if you have questions\, contact Phil Petrie at phil@icejsd.org.
