Our BackStory
The Interfaith Climate Group supports outreach to faith-based and service organizations in Alachua County. We invite them to join Community Organizations Active in Disaster and support the County Climate Action Plan with individual and collective action for a resilient future.
The Interfaith Climate Group provides a spiritual foundation for the Climate Collaboratory, a project of We, the World and a growing network of partners. By sharing stories of who is doing what for a sustainable, just, and peaceful future, we create a network of support for young people who are making the change they want to see in the world.
In 2021 the Alvarez family invited the United Nations Association and other organizations in Alachua County to use the Global Goals as a Blueprint for a World House (See 3-minute trailer video)
In 2022 the Star Center Theatre youth helped to introduce the story of life on Earth in The Big Story. (See our 4-min trailer video.)
In April 2023 “The Climate Conversation Show” at Star Center Theatre featured youth-led original music, storytelling, and interviews with people taking climate action in Alachua County.
In June 2023, Alachua County hosted a Climate Fair. The Citizens Climate Advisory Committee shared the results of their Environmental Risks Survey. They told the commissioners and mayors about risks for hurricanes, floods, wildfires, and heat waves.
