<DIV>ENERGY, GLOBAL WARMING, and RELIGION</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Religious organizations are becoming increasingly involved in discussions
about energy policy and</DIV>
<DIV>global climate change. Several events will take place on Cape
Cod in October.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Unitarian Universalist church in Falmouth will devote two Sunday
morning services to presentations about energy policy, global warming, and
religion. The public is invited to both services.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>OCTOBER 3rd: The main speaker will be Donna Oglesby, who
teaches international politics at Eckerd College, in St. Petersburg,
Florida. Dr. Oglesby was a US Foreign Service officer for many
years. She will discuss organized religion's involvement with global
warming concerns. The Sunday service will begin at 9:30
am. The church is located at 840 Sandwich Road, in east
Falmouth.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>OCTOBER 10th: Rev. Robert Murphy will speak about religion and
energy justice. Rev. Murphy has worked with human rights and
environmental justice organizations for many years. In July, the
national Sierra Club sent Rev. Murphy to Ethiopia, to study the ways in which
developing nations are responding to climate change problems. Murphy
has a masters degree in public health. The Sunday
service will begin at 9:30 am. For information,
please call the church office. PHONE: (508) 457-0449.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>On October 10th, there will be a community presentation at the Unitarian
Universalist church that will</DIV>
<DIV>focus attention on energy justice strategies for Cape Cod and islands
communities. Three questions will be asked. "How
much energy do we need?" "How can we support community-based
systems that</DIV>
<DIV>produce clean and sustainable energy?" "How can we help the
needy meet their energy needs?"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The community presentation will begin at 7:00 pm. All
people are invited. Free.</DIV>
