North America Action Call! Faiths for Climate Justice 2024

The next 20 months leading up to COP30 are a decisive opportunity to turn the tide on the climate crisis. The challenges we face are daunting–

  • The past year saw the highest temperatures recorded in years, and a corresponding spike in devastating deadly climate impacts and loss of livelihoods and life for millions of people.

  • Water sources are drying up, temperatures are rising, soil is growing infertile.

  • These factors are intensifying armed conflicts, political instability, and hunger.

The world is at a climate crossroads. We need real action.

That is why GreenFaith is coordinating the global, grassroots
Faiths for Climate Justice mobilization, May 3-12, 2024

Join us for a Faiths for Climate Justice North America Action Call:

March 7 at 7 PM EST / 6 CST / 5 MST / 4 PST

What’s needed is clear: phase out fossil fuels and scale up renewables.

And yet, governments and corporations STILL continue fossil fuel expansion—which is the opposite of progress.

People in power are indifferent to the suffering of their people.

Banks and asset managers–with enough money to bankroll a renewable energy transformation– are repeating the same mistakes that got us into this problem in the first place.

In response to this injustice, a faith-rooted climate movement is rising. Join our global faith community to publicly and creatively call for an end to fossil fuels and for polluters to pay for damages.

I'M IN!

As people of faith, we are a beacon of hope for the world. We are standing up to show the world what is possible when we refuse to accept injustice.
