It’s a Thanksgiving Special this week on Sustainability Now! The mic is turned on your host, Justin Mog, as he sits down for a deliciously deep conversation with Kyle Kramer, Executive Director of the Passionist Earth & Spirit Center and host of public radio’s Earth & Spirit Podcast. Together, we try connecting the dots between faith, sustainability, contemplative practice, and social justice by exploring Justin's Quaker faith and his efforts to actively seek an Earth restored through healing our relationships.

For Thanksgiving, the community action calendar is taking a week off, so stash your calendars and spend the week in gratitude, active listening, and building or healing the relationships necessary to get us all on a path to happiness and sustainability!
