How a NJ Green Amendment Could Have Blocked the PVSC Dirty Methane/Hydrogen Plant
If NJ had a Green Amendment, agencies could no longer ignore climate and cumulative impacts of injustice as PVSC and NJDEP arguably have done in this instance. Pope Francis in his encyclical Laudato Si’, “There is an urgent need to develop policies so that, in the next few years, the emission of carbon dioxide and other highly polluting gases can be drastically reduced, for example, substituting for fossil fuels and developing sources of renewable energy.”
When Wells Run Low, NJ's Drought Must Revive Our Sharing Spirit
Across sacred Earth, many faith and spiritual traditions—Indigenous, Earth-centered, interfaith—recognize water as sacred, as a gift of life entrusted to us, not for profit, but for care. In this moment, New Jersey is at a crossroads; will we respond with short-term conservation calls, or will we recognize water as what it truly is: a fundamental human and ecological right?

“Know Your Stream Day” Event—A Watershed Moment for Stormwater & Drought Awareness
Northern Monmouth County, NJ- The newly formed Monmouth Watershed Alliance (NMWA) (www.monmouthwater.org) held its inaugural “Know Your Stream Day” on October 25, 2025, bringing together residents, municipal partners and watershed experts to take a closer look at the water systems that connect our communities from the hills to the shore. The event served as a timely reminder that the health of our streams and stormwater infrastructure is intimately linked to drought conditions, flood risk, ecosystem vitality and our collective responsibility to water.
