COUNTDOWN TO COPENHAGEN

The Copenhagen meetings are getting closer! World leaders will convene in Copenhagen for crucial international negotiations on climate change. All of this in December, 2009. The Eco-Justice Organization wants to deliver 20,000 signatures to President Obama calling on him to go to Copenhagen. Click on the link below to tell President Obama that climate change is a moral issue we can no longer keep on the back burner.

We must come together as a global community to help our brothers and sisters, especially those living in poverty, along with all of God's Creation. Some of the most frightening impacts of climate change include water and food shortages, the spread of disease, ecosystem destruction and mass extinction. These impacts are felt most acutely in countries who have contributed least to the problem.

SOW FOR YOURSELVES RIGHTEOUSNESS; REAP STEADFAST LOVE; BREAK UP YOUR FALLOW GROUND; FOR IT IT TIME TO SEEK THE LORD, THAT HE MAY COME AND RAIN RIGHTEOUSNESS UPON YOU. —Hosea 10:12

Zambia has made great progress toward meeting the Millennium Development Goal in water sanitation. We hope that sanitation projects will be welcomed and successful and that the health of the nation will be dramatically improved by increased access to clean water.
