Work Towards Justice
Climate impacts are felt by all, but vulnerable populations experience the impacts first and worst. The issues that we care about as people of faith are negatively impacted by climate change. We are called to love and care for God’s creation. Now is the time for us to visibly lead on climate action, advocacy, and justice.
Below are tools and resources to deepen your personal and congregation-wide commitments to justice by seeking out, advocating for, and working to bring about just and equitable climate action and solutions.
