The Interfaith Environmental Network of Austin invites you to attend a monthly symposium from 7:00 p.m to 8:00 p.m. Tuesday, June 7 at Friends Meeting of Austin, 3701 E. Martin Luther King Blvd.
 

This month’s featured topic and presenters are The City of Austin Solid Waste Services Department

who will present a one-hour lecture and Q&A and discussion called "Reducing Waste, Recycling More: For Austin Congregations."

Two presenters, Lauren Hammond, information specialist, and Woody Raine, P.E., senior planner, will provide an overview of the City’s new “Universal Recycling Ordinance” and discuss departmental plans for achieving zero waste by 2040. Special focus for this session will be upcoming changes in the City’s commercial recycling program due to impact local congregations.

We welcome those in faith communities in Central Texas who are interested in linking religious values and spirituality with environmental stewardship concerns. Join us in sharing resources for inspiring our faith communities to live out the common call to environmental stewardship and caring for the creation.
