Environmental Justice

CCU thinks green. 

We believe that environmental stewardship, or caring for God's gift of creation, is a critical part of our Christian mission. We also know that the struggle for environmental justice is interconnected with our efforts to acheive economic justice, racial justice, and social justice.

We currently have a work group exploring the possibility of Solar PV Panels to help reduce our carbon footprint.

CCU is certified as an Earth Care Congregation by the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A) and a Green Chalice Congregation by the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).  In 2024, we provided financial support to the Sierra Club of Hawaii, Blue Planet, Kokua Foundation, Nature Conservancy of Hawaii, Interfaith Power and Light, Kahumana, and School for Examining Essential Questions of Sustainability. In addition, we have also provided reusable bags to our members and friends who visit the Sunday morning farmers market next door. 

We are always looking for new ways to Mālama ‘Āina. Let us know who else we should engage in partnership!
