Tu B'shvat: It's not easy being Green (when the green is hidden)

Tu B'shvat is tomorrow. It is time to put our values into practice especially when it comes to the environment and our use of natural resources. MRT now has a working Green MRT Team. They are charged with evaluating, changing, and monitoring our practices in terms of environmental impact and sustainability. I need your help in greening the synagogue. I offered a d'var torah on Friday night on the subject. Listen to it (thanks to Rich Sachs) and get involved with this important effort.

Listen here (it will open in a new window).

In the dvar torah, I mention a synagogue in Evanston, Illinois. Check them out here.

The URJ has also launched a Greening Reform Judaism initiative.
