Worship March 21: Renewal of Our Promises
Unitarian Universalist religious communities are formed, not on rigid commitments to creed, but on our covenants, in other words, the promises we make to one another. How do we work to continually renew those promises? Worship Leader: The Rev. Neal T. Anderson Worship Associate: Elaine Rockwell Forum: Global Warming and the Debate Over Climate Engineering
Despite overwhelming evidence, 50% of Nevada's college students do not believe that global warming is real. Scientists show that global warming is human caused, and that a transition to non-carbon based fuels must take place rapidly to avoid devastating effects. David L. Mitchell, PH.D, Atmospheric scientist at the Desert Research Institute in Reno, has developed one of the last resort strategies that involves climage engineering by modifyng cirrus clouds to release more heat from the atmosphere. It is a controversial approach that Dr. Michell has had peer reviewed among scientists worldwide. Vision Place Show: Prarie Passion: Quilts by Della AndersonQuilting artist Della Anderson states that her work tends towards the use of bright colors, floral patterns, and three dimensional techniques. She enjoys experimenting both with fabric and with free-form stitching to create fabric art which is intended to be decorative, as opposed to functional. Although she starts each project with a plan, she is comfortable with change and adapts to create a unique artistic expression.
