Karenna Gore is Founder and Executive Director of the Center for Earth Ethics, an organization started in 2015 to focus on the intersection of ecology, ethics, and faith. It's no easy task!
Karenna started this organization after convening 200 of the top religious leaders in 2014 to discuss climate change during the Religions for the Earth conference. She realized a centralized system was needed.
During our conversation we discuss:
-How we can all play our part in combatting climate change
-What policies are working well, and where they could be improved
-The time she got arrested
-How growing up as the daughter of VP Al Gore shaped her
-Much more!
"The Center for Earth Ethics works to change the dominant value system from one based on short-term material gain—no matter the pollution, depletion and inequity that result—to one based on the long-term health of the whole community of life. We work through education, convening and advocacy to raise public consciousness as well as to shift policy and culture."
Karenna is a graduate of Harvard, Columbia Law School, and Union Theological Seminary.
