The purpose of the Earthcare Subcommittee of Iowa Yearly Meeting (Conservative) is to provide a focus for Friends’ desire to discern a spiritual approach to preserving the bounty of God’s creation, and promote the just and equal distribution of resources we all need for our daily lives, work, and recreation.
The Committee will be a resource of materials for individual Friends and their Meetings with emphasis on sharing the work and ideas that have already been developed by Friends. The Committee might also serve as the Yearly Meeting’s contact with other organizations dealing with environmental issues.
As Quaker process clarifies either concerns or responses to issues, these will be shared with Friends, Meetings and, perhaps the Yearly Meeting, as seems appropriate.
