A Pew Research Center survey indicates that while highly religious Americans generally express less concern about climate change, young religious adults—including evangelicals under 30—are significantly more likely to acknowledge human-caused global warming and its severity. Across U.S. college campuses, various religious groups (Christian, Jewish, Muslim) are now advocating for collective action to reduce carbon emissions.

On April 26, 2023, a panel featured young Americans from diverse religious backgrounds. They discussed how their faith informs campus activism, shared their evolving perspectives, and explored their impact – or hoped-for impact – on older generations within and beyond their traditions.

In an interview on "Dispatches from The Well," Jane discussed the significance of stories, recounting a childhood memory at age four. She patiently observed a hen laying an egg, an experience she views as foundational to becoming a scientist: asking questions, seeking answers, learning from mistakes, and developing patience.

While many desire a society accountable to people and the planet, corporate domination, particularly by giant tech companies, undermines democracy and concentrates wealth. This trend erodes our agency and community input.

Stacy Mitchell, a leader against excessive corporate power, reveals that these immense companies have met their match. A broad grassroots alliance and new government leaders are reviving anti-monopoly laws and strategies, offering hope for a more equitable and greener future.
