Jono and Abby led an engaging and thought-provoking Eco Church morning focused on climate change. Jono kicked things off quite literally — by throwing rubbish into the congregation! Later, we used that same rubbish to write personal pledges, committing to changes we can each make to care for creation.
We watched an inspiring video from Sam Walker, who shared how communities in Malawi are tackling climate change in practical and hopeful ways.
A fun and eye-opening game based on the book How Bad Are Bananas? challenged us to guess which everyday items have a greater carbon footprint—like whether a large latte is worse for the planet than a choc ice!
Jono then delivered a segment of “Breaking News,” spotlighting pressing climate-related issues from around the world. Abby wrapped up the morning with a thoughtful reflection and a prayer, helping us ground our actions in faith and hope.
It was a creative, challenging, and inspiring time together. Let’s keep the momentum going as we care for God’s creation!
