Looking at neighbors through eyes of climate change

0

PERRYSBURG — A program entitled “Who is My Neighbor in a Climate-Threatened World?” will be held at 7
p.m. on Monday at St. John XXIII, 24250 N. Dixie Hwy.
The program focuses on the growing crisis of climate migration — families forced to move by climate
change — and reflects on the responsibility of Christians to respond to their needs.
More than 20 million people are displaced by weather disasters every year, and experts believe that many
of these disasters are already being worsened by climate change. Between 150 and 300 million people may
be forced to migrate in the next 30 years specifically because of global warming. Taking prompt action
to limit climate change will spare millions of people the hardships of migration.
Attendees will learn how to help through prayer, aid, advocacy and action. All are welcome, and
refreshments will be served.
RSVP to Bob Clark-Phelps at 419-377-1540 or [email protected]
