One Earth, One Chance: UN COP15

This conversation will look at the UN COP 15 experience and the diverse strategies for the urgent changes we need going into and coming out of that pivotal event.  Grassroots pressure is crucial, as is policy change from within the multilateral spaces. The involvement of faith communities can be a game changer.  The pressure must come from everywhere and include everyone. We will explore organizing with spirit, hope, intention and effective strategies for urgent action.
