Keeping the Earth: a Forum for Clergy and Faith Leaders



This forum is a community discussion of our shared values and shared responsibilities for the biosphere/creation in this time of climate crisis. The Earth and its people are suffering from ever increasing extreme temperatures; more frequent storms, floods, droughts, and wildfires; sea level rise; and spreading disease. Tens of millions of people are displaced every year from these ever-increasing climate disasters. What are the religious and scientific perspectives on these issues? Dr. Roy May and Dr. Stefan Sommer lead the discussion, joined by 92 participants from scientific and faith communities across Northern Arizona.

Dr. May holds a Master of Divinity degree from the Perkins School of Theology (Southern Methodist University) and the PhD in theology from the VU University in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. For 30 years he taught theology and ethics at the Latin American Biblical University in San Jose, Costa Rica.

Dr. Sommer is the Director of Education at the Merriam-Powell Center for Environmental Research at Northern Arizona University. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree from U.C. Berkeley, a Master of Science Degree from the University of Maryland, and a PhD in Ecology from the University of New Mexico. His focus is on ecological sustainability and cultural bridging.

This Forum is sponsored by the Northern Arizona Climate Change Alliance.
