One of the more important melding of missions happening in today’s culture is the growing sense of shared purpose between religious and environmental organizations. So, it is nice to see that a group of campus ministries at the University of Michigan have organized a “green” tour of the school scheduled for this Saturday. Excerpts from the UM events page:
Green Tour of Campus and Nearby
Time: 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Location: Harlan Hatcher Graduate Library
Room: Meet at the “M” on the Diag in front of the Grad Library
Type: Activity
Want to learn what green resources there are in the area? We’ll have a quick tour of the Dana building, which houses the School of Natural Resources and Environment, and has lots of green features. We’ll ride (hopefully) one of the AATA hybrid biodiesel buses to the People’s Food Coop (with lots of local, organic, natural, and vegetarian options), stop by the Ecology Center to learn about local recycling and other projects, visit the National Wildlife Federation, visit a housing coop, learn about biking resources in Ann Arbor, see some energy saving streetlights, and finish with Organic Pizza at Silvio’s. After pizza, anyone who wants can come for a walk in the Arb. You’ll also get some brochures and other resources to take home.
