Friday 28th November different faith traditions of the earth will be represented in Uppsala,Sweden and a climate change manifesto will be signed. Hopefully this Manifesto can serve as a tool for faith traditions around the world to take a more active part in the real Change that the world need to get out of the fossil age! And the Manifesto could also be a message to the negotiators from all the nation of the world that we want to see brave actions in Poznan and all the way to Copenhagen, so that there will be a treaty that lower the emissions and also give the possibility to development in the developing countries.
It is time for the interfaith movemnet to come up with their own "Yes we can" moment. We need to be aware of the threat of climate change to especially the poor of the world but we also need the joy and hope as a driving force for change. Faith traditions of the world can equip the world with that; With hope for the future!
