Earth Week

Salve Regina's Earth Week celebration is dedicated to deepening our commitment to our mercy, Catholic mission and advancing the Critical Concerns of the Sisters of Mercy. We are particularly focused on promoting sustainability and the critical concern of Earth, advocating for practices and policies that advance climate justice and care for the Earth in tangible and measurable ways.

 We are faced not with two separate crises, one environmental and the other social, but rather with one complex crisis which is both social and environmental. Strategies for a solution demand an integrated approach to combating poverty, restoring dignity to the excluded, and at the same time protecting nature.
