This Sukkot: Consider the Extinction of Animals, Climate Change, & Shiluach Haโ€™Kan We leave the comforts of our homes to live in sukkot (huts) to humble ourselves and to reconnect with our existential core in nature.

Sukkot is a time to celebrate peace, embrace nature, and reflect on our place in the world.
Together, let's build a more peaceful world, one sukkah and one vegan meal at a time. Chag Sameach! shamayim.substack.com/p/this-sukko...
