ABOUT SHIR SUSTAINABILITY

Members of the Shir Hadash community have been engaged in environmental action for many years, in different ways, working under the title “Shomrei Adamah” (Guardians of Earth), “The Green Team” and now as Shir Sustainability.

The committee is composed of 5 subcommittees to ensure the congregation’s actions meet high standards of sustainability and to encourage congregants to incorporate sustainable practices into their own lives. Facilities, food, garden/landscape, potential action and transportation.

There are many ways to get involved in this Committee – Participate in the Task Force of your choice, focus on collective congregation action, or focus on individual actions. If you would like to speak with one of the Committee Chairs to find out what would be a good fit for you, please email us at environment@shirhadash.org
