Listen Later

In this episode of Ecophonia, I continue my conversation with Marqus Cole, the Organizing Director at Georgia Interfaith Power and Light (GIPL) (and you can check out PART 1 here). GIPL is committed to inspiring and equipping communities of faith in Georgia to tackle climate issues with practical solutions. This is PART 2 of our discussion, where we discuss the intersection of faith and environmental advocacy, exploring how faith communities can play a pivotal role in addressing climate change.

In this episode, Marqus shares insights into GIPL's advocacy efforts at both the federal and local levels, highlighting the importance of collective action and the role of faith communities in influencing policy. We discuss the challenges of bridging the gap between faith and environmentalism and how embracing both can lead to significant progress in sustainability efforts. Whether you're a person of faith or not, this episode offers valuable perspectives on how we can all contribute to a more sustainable future.
