In the time that the Holy One created the first human, he took him to all the trees of Gan Eden and said to him, "See my works, how lovely and praiseworthy they are, and all that I created, for your sake I created it. Put your mind [to this], that you don’t ruin or destroy my world, for if you ruin there is no one who will repair after you.” — Kohelet Rabbah on Eccl. 7:13

All who wound God's works wound God's image. — Zohar

About

Healing our relationship to the earth is the first and most important step towards being able to heal the earth itself. Stop the Flood! provides spiritual tools to heal our relationship through study and personal action, to share what action or change people are doing, and to help them partner with each other in healing the earth. Its mission is to be a catalyst (alongside many other organizations) to connect Spirit, ritual, and story to communal and social transformation.

StoptheFlood! also hopes to nurture networks that spread change in communities, synagogues and churches. We need to inspire each other to "become the change we seek". Click here to record a commitment you want to make to lessen global warming.
