In 2019 the Quaker Arts Network invited people to create fabric panels that express their love and concern for a world endangered by environmental change. Loving Earth Project has grown to include over four hundred panels from all over the world and was listed as one of the best cultural events in Scotland for COP26, the UN Climate Change Conference. A portion of the exhibit will be in Sacramento during all of April.
The Loving Earth Project has helped people of all ages engage creatively and constructively with climate change issues without becoming overwhelmed. The exhibit also shares positive examples of how people are taking action. The Loving Earth Project UK
