Faith & Money Network
Join us for A Trip of Perspective to Wise County, Virginia
November 8-11, 2018
Why Come?
Awareness – Witness the witness the devastating effects of Mountain Top Removal mining on Wise County communities of Central Appalachia, dismantle stereotypes, and build relationships
Lifestyles – Make the connection between our energy demands and the earth’s limited resources
Action – Become a part of the solution personally and politically
Program and Details
We will learn from and be inspired by individuals and groups who are bringing creative solutions to this environmental injustice. Each day we will meet and hear a variety of speakers, visit Mountain Top Removal sites, and have ample opportunity for dialogue with the residents themselves.
The trip fee of $200.00 covers activity costs, speaker honoraria, and trip leadership. Each participant is responsible for the cost of travel, housing, and meals. If you wish to reserve/share a hotel room or carpool with others from the DC area, contact Faith and Money Network.
We have borrowed from future generations by consuming unprecedented amounts of natural resources. Our economic future is linked to changing environmental conditions.
