JTS Awarded $10,000 Grant from the Adamah Climate Action Fund

JTS has been awarded a grant of $10,000 for an LED lighting upgrade in 2026, matching JTS’s own financial commitment. By converting JTS’s building light fixtures to LED, we are projected to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 69 tons and save $50,000 per year. This is a critical next step in the significant energy efficiency investments that JTS has already made in its infrastructure, such as heating systems and window replacements.

Mazal Tov to our Climate Action Grant Awardees!

[August 2, 2024] So much feels out of our control, like rising temperatures. According to NASA, the summer of 2023 was the hottest on record for our planet and just last week the globe reached the hottest temperatures ever measured. Temperatures continue to rise, something many of us are experiencing firsthand. Yet, so much is in our control, like our own actions! That is why we are excited to announce our latest round of Adamah Climate Action Fund grant and loan recipients—organizations that are members of the Jewish Climate Leadership Coalition, taking concrete action to reduce their own GHG emissions.
