Kermit’s Korner: Gift Wrap

January 1, 2020 by r.yeomans

Periodically over the last year or two, I’ve been thinking, “Gee, I really should stop using wrapping paper, because it can’t be recycled.” But old habits die hard and I never made the time to figure out what else to do. When Eleanor declared her college major was environmental studies, I heaved a heavy sigh […]

Kermit’s Korner: Climate Action

December 5, 2019 by m.memmott

Last week I participated in a Climate Action Lobby Day at the State House organized by 350.org. Taking its name from the 350 parts per million of carbon in the atmosphere that is deemed a “safe” level (we are now over 400ppm), 350.org is an international, environmental organization addressing the climate crisis. We gathered in […]

Many churches list lay readers, ushers, altar servers, organists, etc. in their weekly bulletin. Edwards is the only church I know that also lists a “compost captain.” What is a compost captain? The compost captain is someone who wants to keep waste out of landfills by doing one simple job—helping to educate folks at coffee […]

Global Climate Strike

October 11, 2019 by m.memmott

Willie and I were among the 10,000 people (maybe more) who took part in the Global Climate Strike protest on Friday, September 20 in Boston. An estimated 4 million participated world wide. All this was inspired by a schoolgirl, Greta Thunberg, who, at age fifteen, was so frustrated that grown-ups weren’t doing enough to combat […]

This spring we started offering compostable cups and paper products at coffee hour—and the trash can in Sue Dickerman Hall has been converted to a compost collector. With this change we hope to have waste-free coffee hour and events. (Of course, if you can bring your own travel mug that is even better, and you […]

As farmers in the Midwest face the misery of floods and crop loss, we have supported them through a special offering for disaster relief this June.
