Christian discipleship in the context of Climate Change
On February 1st during the morning service Rev Stephen Levett addressed the subject of climate change and considered the possible biblical basis for being concerned and taking action. He acknowledged it is a subject that some are still unconvinced about both from a scientific and a theological perspective, as well as something we sometimes feel overwhelmed by where we are unsure about exactly what a person might usefully do if they wished to respond. Here are a few places you might begin in order to carry reflection and action further:
Further reading and reflection:
Read Hope in God's Future: Christian Discipleship in the context of climate change. This significant report presented at the 2009 Methodist conference has been produced in booklet form for study throughout the wider church. Sign up for a copy on the sheet available at church. Price £5 Alternative you can download the report direct by visiting http://www.methodist.org.uk/downloads/10-hope-in-gods-future-210509.pdf
Read the theological paper provided by Eco Congregations, which can be downloaded at http://ew.ecocongregation.org/resources/module3
Wanting to take action?
Sign up to the 10:10 campaign. This is a year long initiative in 2010 encouraging people and organisations to seek to cut their carbon emissions by 10% during the year. For more information and to sign up go to http://www.1010uk.org/
Take other obvious steps such as:
-Try to apply the handy little saying in terms of your use of material things of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
-Use the council recycling bin as asked.
- Collect and place aluminium cans in the box at church.
- Do the energy audit your gas/electric supplier keeps inviting you to take.
- Share a lift to church or walk
etc.
