Environmental Justice Commitments

Chestnut Hill United Church has long been committed to environmental stewardship and environmental justice. We are an institutional member of the following organizations and coalitions that are dedicated to caring for the world we inhabit and advocating for just stewardship of resources:

  • Choose Clean Water Coalition - Harnessing the collective power of more than 290 organizations to advocate for clean rivers and streams in all the communities in the Chesapeake Bay region.
  • The Clean Power PA Coalition - A coalition of more than 40 clean energy, business, faith, and community leaders committed to protecting Pennsylvania's environment and powering its economy through clean energy.

Check the 'Our Church in the Wild' module on our home page for roundups of letters we have signed onto.
