"If the climate activists warning of the gravest threat humanity has yet faced are silenced into 2024, we all may find ourselves paying an intolerable price"- @OwenJones84
The govts response to an escalating #ClimateCrisis is to 'shoot the messenger'

For the sake of a handful of votes, #RishiSunak is helping to trash the habitable planet. A man without principle or substance.

Rishi Sunak's statement on #netzero feels like a punch in the stomach. He's lied to the public. He's dodging scrutiny. He's trashing our children's futures. Enough is enough. He's not fit to govern. He simply has to go.

"Every flight avoided, every solar panel installed, every dollar moved from oil, every prayer of lament said, every home saved from flooding, every young voice heard in the courts of power matters. Every action is important." @Greenanglicans
‘The Lambeth Call on the Environment gives a roadmap of possible actions.
🟢 Consider your theology - repenting of actions and theologies of domination. Learn from Christian tradition and indigenous peoples.
🟢Consider your liturgical life: embrace creation liturgies such as the Season of Creation and incorporate lament into your liturgies.
🟢Make space for the prophetic voices of young people and women who are calling for climate justice
🟢Learn about the projected impacts of Climate Change in your diocese and equip communities to prepare for and recover from disasters.'

"The time has come to voice our fears and be honest with wider society. Current net zero policies will not keep warming to within 1.5°C because they were never intended to. They were and still are driven...to protect business as usual, not the climate."
