Hope for Planet Earth 2009

In February and March, Tearfund partnered with Christian experts to bring the issue of climate change to your doorstep. It was powerful to bring science, faith and advocacy for the world’s poorest people together. The national tour has now come to a successful finish, and we wish to thank everyone who took part.

Thousands of Christians across the country came out to explore how climate change is affecting our planet from a Christian perspective. Many were inspired to take action on this issue that is close to God’s heart, but often neglected.

Campaigns Officer Alisha Sanvicens attended events in Devon and Cornwall and says, ‘I was really encouraged by the way the church is starting to find its prophetic voice in caring for Creation. Most people I’ve spoken with are eagerly looking for practical actions to live more energy-efficient lifestyles, and are making the connection between their lives and the lives of poor people across the world.’

If you missed out this time let us know that you would like something like this in your area in the future.
