The 2019 UCA NSW/ACT Synod meeting decided to develop a Synod -wide Climate Action Strategy to reduce carbon emissions across all councils and agencies of the Church, and to advocate to Federal, State and local governments to take decisive steps to reduce green house gas emissions levels.
The Synod leadership team will form a steering group responsible for overseeing development, implementation and monitoring of the climate change strategy for a period of three years.
The Strategy must be shaped by the ideas and input from the wider church. To this end, the Strategy will begin with an open planning meeting (including additional sessions) to shape the Strategy and establish task groups to implement its core elements.
The details for the main workshop are as follows.
Date: Tuesday 10 December
Time: 13:30- 15:30 pm
Location: Level 4 222 Pitt St Sydney
There will be some optional sessions and a post event dinner for those that are able to attend. Get more details here.
The following survey is for everyone interested in the Strategy, including those that can’t attend the meeting. It will help us plan the day, and offer everyone an opportunity to prioritise task group areas. During the day or afterwards participants can join a task group.
