Mags GarganEco-Congregation Ireland (ECI) has launched a new resource to encourage Christians throughout Ireland to become more eco-aware and eco-active at church and at home.
Climate Change – Can I Make a Difference? includes some of the latest environmental data as well as a comprehensive theological response to climate change, prayers for the environment and advice on how to reduce one’s carbon footprint – as an individual and as a parish.
“We hope this resource will encourage Christians in Ireland to incorporate eco-friendly habits into their lives as they come to terms with the reality of climate change and how our carbon-guzzling lifestyles are already impacting the lives of many people living in developing countries,” said Catherine Brennan SSL, ECI’s Catholic representative.
ECI, a project of the Irish Inter-Church Meeting, encourages churches to adopt an eco-friendly approach to worship, lifestyle, community outreach and contact with the developing world.
