10th Anniversary of Pagan Community Statement on the Environment

Posted by on in Paths Blogs

The Pagan Community Statement on the Environment is standing the test of time so far. Most of what's written in it is still as relevant now as it was when it was written. That's not a sad statement about lack of progress, but rather a happy statement about the foresight to keep it general instead of talking about really specific issues. At the time, I wanted to put in more specific, solvable calls to action, but my fellow committee members were right to distill it to more general principles.

I helped write the Pagan Community Statement on the Environment, representing Asatru. Although working in committees with a series of revisions by others inevitably led to some friction, I think the result was great work. I started my writing and editing on the project in 2014 and the Statement was published on Earth Day 2015.

To read the Statement, or to sign it, see who has signed it, see the list of who worked on it, etc., here is the link: A Pagan Community Statement on the Environment (ecopagan.com)
