Climate talks

Durban climate talks: the verdict

Reactions to the UN climate talks at Durban have been varied. Some have focused on the political victory - achieving an agreement that included the US, China and India. Others describe it as a failure because any deal made will not come into force until 20120, and will not be enough to prevent a 2C temperature rise.

Operation Noah Annual Lecture 2011: Report

Climate change is a confessional issue for the churches

Professor Tim Gorringe gave the Operation Noah annual lecture on Monday 15th November 2011 at at St Mary-le-Bow, Cheapside, and asked 'Is climate change, and its connection with the global economy, a matter for church confession?'

Comment

This is not alarmism. It is happening now.

The Church Times (21 October 2011) recently published an article by Dr Peter Forster, the Bishop of Chester and a trustee of the Global Warming Policy Foundation, aimed at discrediting what he describes as 'global warming alarmism'. The Rt. Revd. David Atkinson wrote to Church Times in response to the article on behalf of Operation Noah. We reproduce his letter below.
