WebForum is an online “conversation” addressing current topics that are shaping actions and decisions about Earth’s changing climate. Join us here to discuss significant issues and developments in the climate action community. Each topic begins with a feature essay from an interfaith climate leader, followed by responses to the essay by several panelists from the field. Comments from readers help us continue the conversation.
WebForum conversations will be archived online and considered for expansion into upcoming webinars hosted by the Climate Action Task Force, in partnership with the Security and Sustainability Forum.
The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed in the webforum belong solely to the author, and do not necessarily reflect the position of Parliament of the World's Religions.
