About Us

Operation Noah was founded in 2001 by Christian Ecology Link (CEL) and later became a joint project of CEL and the Environmental Issues Network of Churches Together in Britain and Ireland. Operation Noah was the first Christian campaign to focus exclusively on the urgent need to address climate change.

Chair’s Report for Operation Noah Annual Supporter’s Meeting 2011, presented by Rev Chris Brice, Friends Meeting House, June 6th 2011.

A massive thank you to all of you who responded to our appeal for support and donations!

1. Seeking the grace of the gospel, we proclaim a renewed humanity, set free from unsustainable and dangerous patterns of consumption

2. Through research and analysis, we equip Britain’s churches with understanding of scientific evidence, and its consequences in economic and political choice

3. With theological reflection, we challenge those who lead and shape churches to do so prophetically and with integrity

We are driven by hope, the hope that we, as people of faith armed with the latest science can overcome this threat to Creation...

Vision

Operation Noah works for the complete decarbonisation of the British economy by 2030.

Operation Noah is...

• a Christian organisation which provides leadership, focus and inspiration in response to the growing threat of catastrophic climate change endangering God’s creation.

• informed by the science of climate change, motivated to care for creation by our faith and hope in God, and driven by the desire to transform and enrich our society through radical change in lifestyles and patterns of consumption.

Ann Pettifor became Campaigns Director with Operation Noah in early 2007. She brought with her a wealth of experience – in economics, in advocacy and in campaigning. Her vision and contacts enabled Operation Noah to sharpen its political focus.
