Climate change and global warming have become issues of major importance
in our world today.

We as Christians are called to take creation seriously, where faith in a Creator implies a belief that the material world is part of God’s concern. A belief in creation leads us from the past and the present into God’s future, where the hope of redemption is for the whole of the created material universe.

Christians are taking an active part in caring for God’s Earth in various ways.
