"We learn from the Rambam that teshuva (repentance) has three main components.
First, we need to reflect on our behavior.
Secondly, we must commit to change our ways.
And thirdly, we have to try to make amends for the damage we have done."

In what ways can we make amends to the environmental damage that we all have contributed to? What role do YOU want to play in this process?

We are over-consuming the world.

Hope everyone is enjoying their Sukkot! Sukkot celebrates the harvest season, so try celebrating by eating locally harvested food! Usually our food travels hundreds of thousands of miles to get to our plates, which results in significant green house gas emissions and leaves us with tasteless produce. Eating locally is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint while celebrating the tasty harvest and flavors of your own area!
