testifyOn Monday May 18, faith leaders from Jewish, Muslim, UU and Christian traditions made their voices heard before the EPA. Each leader expressed their support for the EPA’s action in finally taking the first steps to regulate global warming emissions. Fr. Jacek Orzechowski spoke about his first generation immigrant family parishioners from Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Bangladesh who are low-income and will be the hardest hit by the dire consequences of global climate change. Imam Johari Abdul-Malik, explained that "America has the opportunity to lead again, this time against the terror of climate change." Leaders like Rev. Sarah Scherschligt explained what their congregation is doing to be part of the solutions to global warming; hers just started to purchase 100% wind energy.
