globalgood.org, a resource portal for Episcopalians working together to support the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and to reduce global poverty, seeks to help you engage these efforts, which frame the justice and peace work that General Convention has designated as the Episcopal Church’s top mission priority for 2007-2009.
Theological context and practical resources are highlighted throughout this site -- underscoring the MDGs as an action plan affirmed by nearly all of the world’s countries and leading development institutions.
Working together, we can make a difference. Thank you for your commitment to living local life for global good. ------------------------------------- DID YOU KNOW . . . September 16 is International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer?
International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer commemorates the day in 1987 on which the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was signed - September 16. It was first celebrated in 1995 and provides an opportunity for states to devote the day to promote activities in accordance with the objectives of the Protocol and its amendments. The ozone layer, a fragile shield of gas, protects the Earth from the harmful portion of the rays of the sun, thus, helping preserve life on the planet.
