The Climate Witness Project invites you to celebrate Earth Week with us, from April 20th-24th, by using some of the resources we’ve created. Whether it’s reading a blog, watching a video, advocating to the government, or getting outside to reflect on God’s good creation, choose a way to mark Earth Week this year!
April 20th - Do Justice Blogs
Do Justice has many blogs and prayers focused on caring well for the created world we have been called to steward. Writers from Canada, the US, and around the globe have reflected on climate impacts in their local communities, such as renewable energy, Indigenous land and water rights, and faith-filled climate perspectives . Check out all of the Do Justice Creation Care blogs here.
April 21st - Creation Care Resources for Kids
It's always fantastic to get kids outside and into creation - to feel the sun on your faces, to hike in the shade of the woods, and to get some dirt under your fingernails in the garden. It's also a great place to connect with the world God has created.
As we all take more time and pay more attention to "all created things" we hope that we will grow in love and appreciation for the created world, and want to take better care of it. The Climate Witness Project has created these resources to be used with children (or playful adults!) outside in God's good created world.
April 22nd - Take Action for a Healthy Global Environment
Canada: As global communities invest deeply in climate mitigation and adaptation, Canada also has a responsibility to cut back on harmful carbon emissions, and to do our fair share to make changes that will slow the advance of climate change and lessen the natural disasters that devastate at home and abroad. We join many Canadians in advocating for the widespread development of clean energy sources to replace our dependence on oil and gas.
Watch this video to learn more about why the Climate Witness Project is advocating for an east-west electricity grid.
US: As communities around the world experience the growing impacts of climate change, we all share a responsibility to speak up for solutions that protect people and the planet. In the United States, this includes supporting policies that reduce emissions, expand clean energy, and safeguard vulnerable communities both locally and globally. Explore the Evangelical Environmental Network’s action alerts to find ways to contact your elected officials and take action. https://creationcare.org/get-involved/#/
April 23rd - Climate Conversations
World Renew has created Climate Conversations to learn about the impacts of climate change in the regions they serve. These can be used as a small group curriculum or your own personal reflection. Each series comes with a study guide and five videos, and spotlights the experiences of different communities as they work with World Renew to adapt to changes in agriculture, health and livelihoods.
Climate Conversation: Bangladesh
April 24th - Hunting Park
The impacts of environmental injustice are often felt in North American communities that can least afford to cope with the increased heat and hazardous health conditions. One such neighborhood is Hunting Park in Philadelphia. Yet in this community, the hopeful work of faith-based advocacy and community resilience is translating into real change! Through the storytelling film series, This is Hunting Park, discover ways your church can make a difference in your own city. Watch the films and download our study guide for conversations in your church groups, youth groups, community organizations and more!
