Episode 59.
The Green Sabbath Project, founded by Jonathan Schorsch in 2019, promotes the concept and ritual of a weekly earth day. Taking a day of rest for yourself and the environment is eminently reflective of the sabbath. Although Jonathan draws from his Jewish heritage, the Green Sabbath Project intentionally avoids promoting any particular religious beliefs or language. Jonathan sees potential learning between religious and non-religious people in connecting the values of a weekly day of rest and reducing the impact on the environment. Taking on this practice is both a simple action and a very flexible practice with deep benefits.
Highlights:
· The Green Sabbath Project aims to promote sustainable living through practices inspired by the principles of Shabbat.
· The project avoids religious language to appeal to a wider audience and promote ecological consciousness.
· People need guidance, incentives to act sustainably and step off the hamster wheel.
· The project has three parts: education, gatherings, and encouraging people to observe Green Sabbaths.
· Promoting sustainable living and ecological thinking as complementary to religious and spiritual approaches.
· We need to re-think how we eat, shop, work, and relate to the environment.
