The Temple Isaiah Green Team has as its major purpose, the development of a keen sense of awareness that earth stewardship is our Jewish responsibility, that humankind's exploitation of this earth has brought us to a point where it can no longer sustain itself, and that earth-justice requires life style changes now for the sake of our children, grandchildren, and all those with whom we share and bequeath this planet. The Green Team focuses on educating and advocating on environmental issues, green activism, and creating green initiatives at Temple Isaiah and in the larger community.

BE A HERO—GO ZERO 

Start the new year
by showing others at the temple how to reduce waste. Bring one of
these        not one of these   .Or a reusable bag
instead of plastic, or your own utensils, or cloth napkins. Think how you can
save raw material, energy, and landfill space, and set an example.

Our activities include:

·         Weekly articles in the Temple Isaiah On-Line Bulletin publicizing earth stewardship issues, community events, and advocacy needs and opportunities

·         An annual program for the 6^th graders and their families on Saving the Earth…Jewsihly, focusing on energy, recycling and water.

·         Facilities greening, e.g creating a recycling program at the temple and converting the Ner Tamid to solar power.

·         Distributing specially designed reusable shopping bags and seed packets on Rosh Hashana, offering Temple Isaiah Green Team coffee mugs, organizing nature walks, giving the Tu B'Shevat service a more custodial emphasis, and distributing informative literature at different functions.

We usually meet on the third Thursday of the month. For more information, contact Steve Fox, at minusksf@aol.com, or 310-397-6611.
