Dear President Obama,
We urge you to do all that you can to seek climate justice for all of God’s children and God’s Creation during the United Nations meeting on climate change in Durban in December 2011.
As people of faith, we are called to protect the most vulnerable among us as well as God’s great gift of Creation. The meeting in Durban is a critical moment in developing steps for a fair, ambitious and binding agreement that sets forth a truly moral response to climate change. Moving forward we must protect the most vulnerable through adaptation assistance.
Africa will be hardest hit by climate change so it is fitting that, while in Durban, we do all that we can to ensure climate justice for all. Our prayers are with you and the world at this time.
Blessings,
