Green Mitzvah

Living on Earth

Bar Mitzvahs mark the passage from youth to adulthood in the Jewish religion. A new movement to plan “green” Bar Mitzvahs is producing some creative ideas and returning Jews to the tradition of caring for the Earth. Host Bruce Gellerman speaks with author Kate Harrison and recent Bar Mitzvah Brendan Eprile.
