Events, Resources and Opportunities
Prayers for Show the Love campaign. Green Christian has written a number of prayers especially for the Climate Coalition’s Show the Love campaign in February. Why not choose one to be read at your church’s service on Sunday 14 February?
Burning down the house. Tearfund and Youthscape are holding this event on 10 February to discuss recent research into how the church could lose young people over climate inaction. Hear from young people and be inspired to consider what might be required of us all as a result.
Pray and Fast for the Climate. Prayer fuels our action to care for creation. Why not join in with Pray and Fast for the Climate this year. Operation Noah was involved in setting up this initiative, which provides prayer points every month to help guide your prayers around the climate crisis.
Green Christian workshops planned for the next few months include one on green and ethical investment with Operation Noah’s Bright Now Campaign Officer, Bokani Tshidzu.
Green Homes Grant is a government grant offering up to £5000 (£10,000 for low-income households) towards the cost of domestic energy-saving measures such as insulation, and low-carbon heating measures, such as air- and ground-source heat pumps. Although the government still needs to do much more to tackle the climate crisis, this is a welcome step towards making it easier for households to make their homes more energy efficient.
Britain Talks Climate. Climate Outreach has produced an evidence-based toolkit designed to support any organisation that wants to engage the British public on climate change. It offers a shared, strategic understanding of the British public and identifies effective ways to engage across the whole of society.
CEE Bill NGO Event. Join the CEE Bill Alliance and Caroline Lucas at an event for NGOs on 25 February, to discuss why the CEE Bill is so critical and how NGOs can work together to mobilise broad segments of society to make the Bill a reality.
Oxford Net Zero This series of talks from the Oxford Martin School addresses topics such as climate justice, geological storage of Co2 and negative emissions.
