Global multi-faith day of action for the climate

GLOBAL MULTI FAITH DAY OF ACTION FOR THE CLIMATE.
On November 18th places of worship worldwide will call for climate justice.
Places of worship around the world are being asked to ‘sound the alarm’ for the climate and call for climate justice as we try to get our economies going in the wake of COVID.
Each place of worship will choose its own way to do this: by ringing its bells, by sounding a note on the shofar, calling the Azan, by chanting and by meditating. Just as long as make a noise – or even some thunderous silence! We each have our own traditions, but we will be united in one clear message.
Every place of worship on Earth is invited to join in. Households of people of faith can join in too.
We will do this at a vital moment: the lead-up to the G20 meeting which will be held on November 21 and 22. At this meeting, finance ministers and leaders from the 20 largest economies will make historic economic decisions in their response to COVID19 that could either lock in positive climate action through massive investment in clean energy or lock in catastrophic climate breakdown by investing in yet more coal, oil and gas.
A global, multi-faith coalition called GreenFaith International is organising thousands of faith communities to take part in this global day of action. This action is being held in at least 14 countries. So your local actions as part of this will be part of something huge.
SIGN UP on by clicking on the photo. Thanks!
We will then get in touch with a complete information pack .
And please let others know about this. It’s going to be big.
