WHO: You, (and we hope your friends and family!)
WHAT: Giving Tuesday, a National Celebration of Giving
WHERE: Donate on our special Giving Tuesday donation page! And follow us on Facebook as we provide updates on initiatives for 2020 throughout the day!
WHEN: Tuesday, December 3rd, 2019 (but you can get involved early!)
WHY: Because we are stronger together! With your donation to our Growth in 2020 special one day campaign, we can move towards complete independence in 2020 on a firm financial footing!
What impact can your gift make?
- The average Giving Tuesday gift in 2018 was $105. 10 people giving $105 would provide the resources for 10 op-eds placed in national publications!
- Have you ever emailed us asking a question about an environmental, economic, theological, or development topic? Thousands of you have! And responding to those emails (which we love to do) costs staff time, and money. Every dollar you give helps us to keep responding to your emails, and to teacher’s emails, and other influencer’s emails. One teacher especially you will be hearing from in December. A teacher who stood up against censorship and almost lost his job for it.
HOW: Every dollar helps! Every gift counts! After you contribute, be sure to share on social media, and invite others to join you! We can make this the most successful national day of giving ever!
Thank you so much for supporting the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation!
We would love for you to share why you give with us and with your friends and family. Post an unselfie like mine (above) to your social media and include this link https://cornwallalliance.salsalabs.org/givingtuesday to our #GivingTuesday donation page. Email your picture to Megan@CornwallAlliance.org and she’ll post it to the Cornwall Alliance facebook page.
Thank you for considering a special gift for this national day of giving!
God Bless You!

“The simplest of climate models run decades ago accurately projected global warming”
.Study refutes a common climate-change-denial talking point. By Andrew Freedman, The Washington Post December 4
It’s a common refrain from those who question mainstream climate science findings: The computer models scientists use to project future global warming are inaccurate and shouldn’t be trusted to help policymakers decide whether to take potentially expensive steps to rein in greenhouse gas emissions.
A new study effectively snuffs out that argument by looking at how climate models published between 1970 — before such models were the supercomputer-dependent behemoths of physical equations covering glaciers, ocean pH and vegetation, as they are today — and 2007.
The study, published Wednesday in Geophysical Research Letters, finds that most of the models examined were uncannily accurate in projecting how much the world would warm in response to increasing amounts of planet-warming greenhouse gases. Such gases, chiefly the main long-lived greenhouse gas pollutant, carbon dioxide, hit record highs this year, according to a new U.N. report out Tuesday.
(This just part of a long article; perhaps Cornwall would like to spin this?)
