I have drafted some minutes [below]. Our next meeting will be next Sunday, Nov 3rd at 9am to work on the Nov 17th Forum presentation. Please RSVP. Thanks, Catherine FUS Climate Justice Group 10/27/19 Minutes Attending: Mary Ann Lundquist, Audrey Kingstrom, Karen Rowehl, Keith Heiberg, Kelli Clements and Catherine Jordan. Meeting started at 9:10am in the Heritage Room. Mary Ann gave us an overview of some of the history of the Solar Garden, Green Sanctuary, and MUSSJA activities at FUS over the last few years. Catherine recapped our first meeting on September 29th where we agreed to make a presentation at the FUS Forum on Nov. 17th. We then briefly reviewed a meeting with Karen Wills, Acting Executive Director of MUSSJA and MN Interfaith Power and Light's ED Julia Nerbonne and two other UU connecters, Universalist's Mark Bohnhorst and Unity's Jean Hammick to discuss possible ways to reach all the MN UU congregations to form Climate Justice groups in coordination with MUUSJA and MNIPL. We also reviewed the MNIPL Climate Justice Congregation Certificate Program. The group did not feel that they were ready to join another organization, wanting to focus on what FUS could do first. We started discussing Goals for the Group: o Share what FUS members are doing related to Climate Change/Climate Justice (i.e. Marcie Leussler and Line 3) o Connect Climate Justice Group to existing FUS activities (i.e. Support the Active Group postcards operation with Climate issues and policies) o Communicate about Climate Justice events, policy actions, personal steps to reduce Carbon footprint. (Explore connecting with First Universalist’s Environmental Justice e-newsletter.) o Explain policy issues (i.e. Green New Deal, Carbon Pricing, etc.) o Assist FUS Members in exploring ways they can make a difference on Climate Justice. We started talking about elements of the Nov 17th Forum presentation: o Add time for a survey to gather information on what FUS members would like to explore (Karen Rowehl will take the lead on drafting survey questions). o Build a Power Point presentation short on the facts of Climate Change and long on steps people can take to mitigate the impacts. Next meeting will be at 9am in the FUS Heritage Room on Nov. 3rd to review the slide deck and design the Nov. 17th Forum Presentation. Meeting Adjourned at 10:30am. Respectfully submitted, Catherine Jordan
