Background Information
While the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) has passed many resolutions and statements addressing environmental concerns, these statements did not necessarily recognize the social justice aspect of environmentalism. In 1994 the UUA voted to adopt a Statement of Conscience specifically pertaining to the issue of environmental justice. This Statement of Conscience encourages Unitarian Universalists to address environmental concerns through the lenses of race and class at the denominational, congregational, and personal level.Last updated on Friday, April 18, 2008.
