In collaboration with Thousands of Events Across the Planet Sunday, October 10, 2010

CAMP SPRINGS – ON OCTOBER 10, PEOPLE ACROSS THE PLANET PICKED UP HAMMERS, SHOVELS, AND PAINTBRUSHES AND JOINED THE 10/10/10 GLOBAL WORK PARTY.

DMUUC organizers joined in an interfaith commitment to environmental action in their church and family homes for following year. We are a Welcoming Community. Our Celebration included something for all ages.

• Joelle Novey, Director of Greater Washington Interfaith Power and Light discussed “Confronting Noah and Ourselves: Our Religious Response to Climate Change”.

• "Wild Child", Mother Earth tucks her rambunctious child, Autumn, into bed for sleep. by Plourde was read for all ages.

• “DC Green Festival Comes to Davies” premiered the year’s UU festival booth. The unique artwork and photo op provided family fun and environmental education in Davies’ lobby after the service (photos here) and then was available for all at the Green Fest (photos | slideshow).

The 10/10/10 Global Work Party was coordinated by the international climate campaign 350.org. Photos are available for the media and video from thousands of simultaneous events and other events across the planet here | UU-only participation here.
