We all love our planet and are concerned about how it's being damaged. As people and communities of faith, we have distinct opportunities for contributing locally and nationally to the fight against climate change. But are we fully exploiting them?

Our panellists will begin the session by introducing how their faith communities have developed campaigns and actions in response to climate change. Questions and further ideas will then be invited from the audience. The aim is that everyone leaves with new ideas to take back to their communities.

Our panellists:

Ali Akbar Islam

Keith Munnings Buddhism

Yvonne Ripley Christianity

Eve Sacker Judaism

Gagan Singh Sikhi

We all share a common concern for our planet, so the focus is less on exploring beliefs, and more about mobilising people into action.
