Please join us for an evening of laughs and learning.
The
St. Francis Pledge challenges us to Care for Creation through prayer,
education, concrete action and advocacy. Our September action will focus
on education and advocacy. Please join us Tuesday evening Sept. 11th
at 7pm at the McBrady Center of St. Elizabeth Seton Church for a free
presentation of the award winning documentary "Merchants of Doubt".
We'll learn the tricks that special interests use to create confusion
and doubt around environmental hazards, from toxic chemicals to climate
change, to delay action even
when there is scientific consensus about the problem. Scientist and
subject matter expert Rick Knight will be there to answer questions
raised in the movie and will talk about the status of forthcoming
legislation in Congress to address some of the hazards.
This presentation is sponsored by the Creation Care Ministries of St Julie, St. Stephen Deacon and St. Elizabeth Seton parishes.
