The impact of climate change on clean air, pollution, and health

When: Sunday, March 30
Time Zones: 2:00 PM PT, 3:00 PM MT, 4:00 PM CT, 5:00 PM ET, 11:00 AM HT, 10:00 PM London, 8:00 AM Sydney (next day)

The burning of fossil fuels creates numerous health problems, including heat stroke, asthma, allergies, lung diseases, and cardiac issues. These health issues impact vulnerable populations the most, making it an eco-justice issue. Climate solutions must be implemented with vulnerable populations in mind if we are to transition away from fossil fuels in a just and equitable way.

Our presenter, Natalia Reyes-Becerra, is the Nationwide Advocacy Manager of Clean Air with the American Lung Association. She will share the impact of climate change on clean air, pollution, and health. We will also continue sharing “Just Transition” stories. Take a deep breath and join us for “A Just Transition Leaves No One Behind: Health” on March 30.

“The restoring of persons to healthy or right relationships with God, others, themselves, and the earth is at the heart of the purpose of your journey as a people of faith.”
—D&C 163:2b

When: Sunday, Feb 23, 2025
Time: 2pm PT, 3pm MT, 4pm CT, 5pm ET, 11am HT, 10pm London, 8am Sydney +1 day 

As we journey toward World Conference 2025, we will go deeper into the concept of a just transition away from fossil fuels. How does G-5 keep hope alive for a sustainable future? Why is fossil fuel reduction critical for a just transition? Where are we really with renewable energy? And what does energy have to do with a hopeful future? These are questions we will explore on February 23. Join us for a challenging look at courage and hope!

Join us on Sunday, October 20th at 2pm PT (3pm MT, 4pm CT, 5pm ET, 11am HT, 10pm London, 8 am Sydney +1 day), on Zoom, for a chance to hear proposals to aid in the climate emergency our world is facing.

Hosted by the Human Rights, Climate Justice, Earth Stewardship teams this webinar will explore three climate resolutions that were proposed for the Community of Christ 2025 World Conference. Each is a response to WCR 1325 declaring a Climate Emergency. Each resolution will be presented by those involved in drafting the resolutions.

“G-11 Climate Change Emergency Call to Action” World Church Human Rights Team Presented by James Ash.  As expected, it focuses on responding to the climate emergency in socially responsible ways. It also includes recognition of climate refugees, and calls for resource development.

“G-10 Earth Stewardship Affirmation” World Church Earth Stewardship Team Presented by Rick Bunch. This broad proposal covers a variety of proposed actions: resource development, creating and sustaining eco-friendly facilities, local peace colloquies, and children and youth stewardship projects.

“G-5 Climate Emergency: Fossil Fuel Reduction” Greater Pacific Northwest USA Mission Center Presented by Paul Bethel. It calls for a just transition from fossil fuels to clean energy, and encourages divesting from fossil fuel investing.
