The military industrial complex is an existential threat to all life on planet earth. San Diego County is home to the highest concentration of active duty military service members in the world and has a robust defense industry component in its regional economy. And the US military is the single largest institutional consumer of fossil fuels and emitter of greenhouse gasses in the world. With the military budget exceeding $1 trillion, at the expense of all other social spending, and the effects of the climate crisis manifesting daily, as well as an ongoing international arms race, isn’t it time to carefully examine the military’s contribution to the climate crisis?

Join us for a panel discussion moderated by Michael Brackney (Peace Resource Center) featuring:

Yusef Miller (ICEJ) – A faith perspective on war and militarism
Scott Kelley (SDSU Professor) –The climate crisis background
Jim Rine (Veterans For Peace) – Militarism and climate change
Gary Butterfield (Veterans For Peace) – Militarism in San Diego

Interfaith Vigil for Earth Justice:

In silence–We resist greed and indifference. We stand with the suffering. We pray for earth repair

As members of various faiths, we are called to stand together in silence for and solidarity with our Earth at this time of climate chaos and environmental devastation driven by human greed and indifference. We call out and resist federal policies that have reversed the progress made in addressing climate disruption and the ruthless steps of the current administration to monetize Earth in our name. Join us for our first (recurring monthly) Interfaith Vigil for Earth Justice on Monday, August 4 @ 12-1 PM at the U.S. District Court building, 385 W. Broadway. Please wear black if you can. This event is open to persons of faith and no faith—do join us!!

The summer solstice is a time to celebrate nature’s abundance, the power of the sun, and the cyclical nature that sustains all life on Earth. Different cultures and people of various faiths worldwide have been celebrating this celestial event for millennia. The word “solstice” comes from the Latin words “sun” and “to stand still.” At solstice, we pause for reflection, gratitude, and a deeper connection to nature. Our drumming builds community and echoes the rhythms of the waves–everything is connected!
