JOIN WITH OTHER VOICES FOR A VIGIL ON DECEMBER 7
Sunday, December 7 at 7:30pm
World leaders will come together in Lima, Peru this December for the UN Climate Change – an agreement that we hope will then be finalized in Paris in 2015. These leaders need to know that we're holding their work in our thoughts, meditations and prayers.
Conference (COP 20/CMP 10). They’ll be working to establish the fundamentals of a strong, global agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
As they start their work, join us in a vigil –
·
for strong action by world governments in
response to the climate crisis, including meaningful progress in Lima
·
for governments to fulfill and even increase
their pledges to the UN’s Green Climate Fund, which will assist poor nations in
dealing with the climate crisis
·
for justice for the world’s poor, who have done
the least to contribute to the climate crisis, but are most vulnerable to its
effects
As citizens of the so-called First World, we recognize our
responsibility for having despoiled and destabilized the global climate. We recognize our moral responsibility to do
everything we can to reverse the worst effects of our society’s wastefulness,
and to work to restore creation. We also recognize our special responsibility
to our brothers and sisters the world over who are already dealing with the
devastating impacts of climate destabilization.
We can make a difference. As
humanity finally begins to grapple with this existential crisis, we must ensure
that our actions are grounded in respect for the natural environment, a passion
for justice for the vulnerable, and a deep love for one another. With our lights we can guide the way.
