Advocating for Climate Justice: Best Practices on the path to carbon neutrality
The Lutheran World Federation (LWF) has consistently upheld its commitment to climate justice, grounded in our theological understanding of God's call to care for creation.
This commitment was reaffirmed through the LWF Climate Emergency Resolution, adopted at our 2023 Assembly. The resolution reinforces the LWF's pledge to reduce carbon emissions and put in place a viable comprehensive plan of action, with the aim of achieving carbon neutrality.
The Advocating for Climate Justice: Best Practices on the Path to Carbon Neutrality report showcases inspiring stories of climate justice in action across the LWF communion, highlighting that meaningful climate action is already happening, and it starts at the local level.
Released as the world nears a decade since the Paris Agreement, it aims to inform policy, inspire engagement, and strengthen collaboration among churches, communities, and governments.
In the face of climate emergency, the LWF reaffirms its commitment to supporting vulnerable communities, advancing faith-based advocacy, and fostering partnerships for a just, sustainable future. This publication demonstrates how faith, hope, and action unite in the pursuit of meaningful climate transformation.
