Uppsala Interfaith Climate Summit

The Archbishop of Church of Sweden has invited around 35 persons from different faith traditions to a meeting in Uppsala 28 - 29 November on Climate Change. At this summit there will be a manifesto signed by people from many different faith traditions from all over the world with a message to the world that climate change must be taken seriously not only from a political view but also from a spiritual and ethical horizon. And that the world must come together and act now to change the human way of living to a more sustainable way.
This is a unique moment! Different faith traditions come together to contribute to the solution of the biggest problem that we have ever faced.
I hope that this can be a sign of hope and that faith traditions of the world will wake up and come together in a new and fruitful way.
