A religious response to global warming | 29 states | 10,000 congregations and growing

Welcome to The Regeneration Project and the Interfaith Power and Light campaign

We are an interfaith ministry devoted to deepening the connection between ecology and faith. Our goal is to help people of faith recognize and fulfill their responsibility for the stewardship of creation.

Specifically, the Interfaith Power and Light campaign is mobilizing a national religious response to global warming while promoting renewable energy, energy efficiency and conservation. People of faith have an opportunity to put their faith into action and help reduce the devastating effects of global warming.

Donate – A survey of 30,000 American households found that those who gave to causes were 43% more likely to say they were "very happy" about their lives. (Newsweek, March 9, 2009)

Love God Heal Earth
By the Rev. Canon Sally G. Bingham

Foremost religious leaders from diverse faith communities respond to the most controversial question of our time: Can we save the earth? The answer could hinge on the phenomenon of the fast-growing interfaith religious environmental movement.

Love God Heal Earth"Love God, Heal Earth is a historically important contribution. Its authors of diverse faiths recognize that protecting the planet and all of life is a transcendent responsibility - for both the scientists who study it and those of religious faith who are able to express its spiritual importance." --E.O. Wilson, Harvard biologist and naturalist, author of The Creation: an Appeal to Save Life on Earth

"Love God, Heal Earth features some of the clearest and most compelling voices in the emerging creation care movement--a unifying and rallying point for people of faith from across diverse traditions." --Jim Wallis, President of Sojourners, author of The Great Awakening.
