There are lots of resources around to help us all think through the implications of climate change and develop our responses as individuals and as a church. The following websites each offer help, ideas and encouragement. We’ve listed them under the five headings used in our Climate Sunday service on 9th May 2021. We also include some publications that have helped and challenged us.
