Discussion questions
- Do you see the coronavirus pandemic and climate change as an equal threat to our health, the planet and those in poverty?
- What biblical reasons can you think of as to why the church should act – which includes prayer and preaching – on climate change? (For reference, see: Psalm 24:1; Psalm 115:16; Psalm 145:9; Matthew 10:29–31; Psalm 72:12; Philippians 2:4.)
- Why do you think tackling climate change is not a priority for many Christians and do you think you can do more to change that?
- What do you imagine it is like for the poorest people in the world who are already facing the consequences of climate change on a daily basis?
Action to take
