Join CAFOD for an online day of talk
and prayer to learn more about this year’s climate talks, Pope Francis’s call
to action and how people in the Amazon region are leading the fight to care for
our common home. The countdown is on. In
a few months, the UK will host the largest gathering of world leaders ever to
take place on British soil: the ‘COP26’ climate talks. Our government has a
vital role to play in leading global efforts to tackle the climate crisis. But
as citizens of the host nation and as people of faith, we have an important
role to play too.This is the time to come together, build a community and act.
