On Earth Day April 22, 2025 Faith in Place wrote:
"We pause with full awareness of the weight and urgency of this moment. The challenges facing our shared home are real and growing—but so is the community of people, like you, committed to healing and justice.
We know that this sacred work isn't easy. It requires stamina, clarity, and deep wells of hope. This is why we turn to our faith and spiritual traditions, which remind us that hope is not just a feeling—it is a practice. A discipline. A choice we make again and again.
Earth Day offers us a moment to renew that practice.
Our diverse traditions have long taught us to live with purpose, care for what has been entrusted to us, and act even when the outcome is uncertain. So today, we honor not only the land, water, and air that sustain us but also the hope that grows from our relationship with the Earth and the community that strengthens us to keep going."

Still, we find their viewpoint provocative and interesting enough to encourage the reader to engage with and come to their understanding and actions, as they deem appropriate.
