In each seasonal edition, CEIE’s Interfaith Observer (TIO) highlights eight timely articles. Showcased here is “Community Organizing of the Earth”, an article written by Estrella Sainburg in December of 2018 

Estrella Sainburg, currently a graduate assistant at the Longhorn Center for Academic Equity in Austin, Texas, was initiated with GreenFaith as New Jersey organizer and soon led the organization’s faith-based, environmental efforts in her home county of Los Angeles. As a Christian and Mexican-American, Sainburg hopes to contribute to the growing uprising of Latinos in the U.S., ensuring the health and opportunities for our communities and the natural environment around us. 

In her article, Sainburg shares: “After 23 years in existence, it became clear to [Greenfaith]: we needed many more people involved in order to solve the grave environmental crisis before us. We needed people actively engaging with their communities and decision-making bodies about humanity’s relationship with the Earth.” 

As Sainburg makes clear: Our relationship with the Earth is straining, and we need every ounce of help to repair it. We need your engagement to make the difference.
