UUCUC Members Support True Climate Bill in Illinois
Members of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Urbana-Champaign gathered on Sunday, August 22 to urge Senator Scott Bennett to help pass a true climate bill in Illinois. We need him to support a bill that ends our reliance on fossil fuels; provides a just transition to a clean, renewable energy future; and closes the Prairie State coal plant in southwestern Illinois. Prairie State is the largest emitter of carbon pollution in Illinois, and the 7th largest in the country! It’s time to do what’s right for our planet.
Best Wishes to Adam Rahn!
Adam Rahn, our current A/V Tech, has accepted a great full-time position and his last day will be on August 29.
