Climate Sunday: what's next after COP26?
COP26 may be over, but it will continue to be vital for churches to build on the progress made over the Climate Sunday campaign. We’re calling on churches to continue to deepen their understanding of creation care and climate justice, to continue to take action in their buildings and community for the environment, and to raise their voices to put pressure on the UK government to scale up and follow through on climate commitments made in Glasgow.
Hear about where you can go next in the pursuit of creation care and climate justice. We focused on three main questions:
-
How can churches continue to incorporate the environment and climate in their teaching and worship?
-
Why is it helpful for churches to be part of a greening scheme as they make commitments for the climate?
-
What needs to happen to keep 1.5 degrees alive?
Panellists included those from the Climate Sunday steering group as well as guests from the greening schemes who talked about their campaigns and actions. The panel was chaired by Andy Atkins from A Rocha UK.
