The media likes to portray people of faith as only caring about right wing social issues like denying pregnant people the right to make their own healthcare decisions, but Jewish values call on folks to stand up for #EnvironmentalJustice #mapoli

JALSA @JALSA_boston

Our Jewish values call on us to protect the earth and our environment. The Zero Carbon Renovation Fund established in HD.776 and SD.500 will make it possible to retrofit buildings through an environmental justice lens #mapoli #EnvironmentalJustice
