discover; explore; conserve; share - these are the four values of the John Muir Award. An award setup to encourage young people to discover God’s beautiful creation, explore all it’s wonder, conserve and protect the wildlife they find and then share their story with all who will listen. Are environmental issues connected to spiritual issues? Can the good news of Jesus and His Kingdom embrace a message about recycling and conservation? Could our schools work incorporate an eco-campaign?

Encouraging young people (and us oldies!!) to think about their impact in the environment.

A day on being more green - lots of fun and good ideas!

Last Saturday was international fair trade day. It would’ve slipped by me apart from the cafe we ran which pretty much focussed on our impact on the world around us, the small positive changes we can make and having lots of fun with spraycans and stencils!
