Week 1: UK

To kick off our Climate Journey, we caught up with people of vision and foresight here in the UK to help us think about the climate change going on under our noses. We asked them to give their perspectives on climate change at home, before we venture over to Latin America. So, without further ado...

Climate Change in the UK?

We talked to low-carbon organic farmer Victor Barry and asked 'is climate change really happening in the UK?' More.

What to do?

Pull up a paving slab and plant something! In the context of the serious need for alternative thinking, eco-theologian Ed Echlin calls for some asphalt action - local solutions to a global problem. More.

Think different?

How we think about ecological issues depends a lot on whether we consider ourselves to be entirely different from, or fundamentally the same as the rest of the natural world, argues theology lecturer Martin Poulsom SDB. Some theological perpsectives (also in PDF) to get your teeth into. More.

Take action!

That little lot ought to be more than enough to convince you of the need for climate action, so make your Progressio Climate Pledge - some guerilla gardening, maybe? More.
