FCB Green
An Initiative Committee of the Social Action Committee
The FCB Green Committee is charged with affirming and promoting our sense of oneness with the natural world that is at the heart of the seventh Unitarian Universalist principle, respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part. Our full charter can be found here. One of our primary goals for the 2017-18 church year is to divest from companies that contribute heavily to climate change.
