The AWARE reading group will have their second meeting of the fall tomorrow, 
Wednesday 30 September, at 6pm at 5 Litchfield Lane, Champaign. 

We’ll talk about the following two texts: 

~ "This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate” (2014) by Naomi Klein; and 
~ "Laudato si': On care for our common home” (2015) by Francis, bishop of Rome -  

specifically, "Part One: Bad Timing” of Klein’s book, and paragraphs 1-83 (about a third of the text) of “Laudato si’."  

Members and friends of AWARE are invited to attend and participate in the discussion.

(Klein’s book is in the bookstores and libraries, and the pope’s encyclical is available in its entirety in several places online, e.g. 
<http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/encyclicals/documents/papa-francesco_20150524_enciclica-laudato-si.html>.)

Our thanks to the pope for making a special trip to the US to inaugurate our discussion, 

—CGE
