Faith leaders are sounding the alarm against extreme and erratic climate events on local communities, highlighting existing inequalities that women, children, the underprivileged and most vulnerable members of society face. Our partners at the Yale Forum for Religion and Ecology (Yale FORE) have compiled Climate Change Statements from World Religions.
At the same time, their institutions are leading by example- communicating the science of climate change through sermons, transitioning houses of worship to renewable infrastructure, divesting from fossil fuels, advocating for climate justice, deploying faith-owned infrastructure and nature-based solutions in disaster recovery, and much more.
