Environment

As the world's population approaches 7 billion, we Jews are cognizant of our mandate to protect, nurture and care for our world. The commandment "Bal Taschit" enjoins, "Do not destroy things from which humanity may benefit." [Deuteronomy 20]

Dayenu Circle: We see the disastrous impact of climate change caused by adding excess greenhouse gases. We watch the extremes of wildfires, hurricanes, droughts, floods, heat waves and habitat loss in the USA and around the world. While it can seem overwhelming, and many of us may feel helpless, there are things every one of us can do!

Our Jewish tradition teaches us to take action, individually and together as a community, to ensure a sustainable planet. Learn more about the fabulous activities and steps Beth Am's Dayenu Circle team has taken to help make our campus greener and more earth-friendly. Want to get in on the action?
