Living the Change is a national faith-based event curated by Australian Religious Response to Climate Change, Religions for Peace Australia and United Religions Initiative. It will be launched in many locations in Australia including Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. There is also an online tool for reducing your carbon footprint as per your faith.
Living the Change celebrations, multiple locations, Oct 7 – 14 – Come along and enjoy a vegan meal. Draw spiritual strength from sharing stories of our efforts to walk more gently on the earth; make a lifestyle commitment online and receive encouragement. Like hundreds of similar events around the world, celebrations will be held in Hobart, Adelaide, Perth, Newcastle, the South Coast of NSW along with celebrations in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.
Many have expressed a keen interest in this year’s global faith-based initiative, Living the Change. I’m excited to announce that the long-awaited online facility through which people can make lifestyle commitments is now ready! [i] It can be found here: https://livingthechange.net/commitment-tool
No doubt you have already been reducing your carbon footprint, but some of the suggested lifestyle changes may be new for you. Please have a look and, if you haven’t already, try one or more of them. You may be interested to see the avoided emissions calculated for various suggested actions for the Australian context.
