Joining the Pilgrimage to Paris

Updated 7 March 2016

I have cared about climate change ever since I first fell in love. I fell in love with a child in Madagascar and suddenly climate change took on a personal dimension. He, like every one of us, will feel the consequences of climate change. I wanted to make the world one in which he could flourish. For me that was about climate justice.

Walking in stillness with the People's Pilgrimage

Updated 7 March 2016

News of the People's Pilgrimage for the climate bounced into my inbox last April. I am one who loves big symbolic gestures. And walking all the way from climate-chaos-threatened places in Indonesia to the UN Climate Summit in Paris in December, seemed like a very big gesture indeed.

Action for climate justice at Heathrow

Updated 16 December 2016

In October I found myself surrounded by over 300 other climate justice activists, some of whom were fellow Quakers, at Heathrow Airport. On the day we held a 'flash-mob' die in and a critical mass bike ride. We were there to oppose any kind of airport expansion and the increase in carbon emissions, air pollution and noise that it would bring, and to highlight the social injustice of who is paying the real price.

6 ways to make Quaker meeting houses more sustainable

Updated 22 July 2019

There are many ways to take action against the climate crisis. More than 100 Quakers recently took part in a mass lobby of Parliament at Westminster, urging MPs to take action. Others have been involved in school strikes, anti-fracking action and activism with the growing Extinction Rebellion movement.It's also important to remember that the sustainability we might call for in other areas of our lives applies to our Quaker meetings and meeting houses as well. In my role I've come across many ways meetings are trying to make their properties more sustainable – and seen a lot of opportunities yet to be taken, too. Here are six ways to make a difference.

Spiritual support for climate action

Updated 10 February 2022

“Can our anger, grief and love push us forward to renewed action?" – Minute 33: Faith-based action for climate justice, Yearly Meeting Gathering 2021 Anger, grief and love can push us towards action but they can also make us feel helpless in the face of the climate crisis. Anger and grief can also overwhelm us when, despite our actions, change is still painfully slow. Our love for a person or a place hurts when we think about what might happen in the future. A focus on action only can leave us without anything to sustain us when things get tough.

Updated 1 February 2023

It was reported in January that the 'carbon offsets' approved by the world's biggest certification provider are largely worthless. The investigation into rainforest carbon offset credits approved by Verra found that more than 90% of the credits offered did not represent real carbon reductions.
