Climate Change: Impact and Response
Documents: Flyer (PDF) | Registration (PDF) | Online Registration
The approach to global climate change by the Catholic Coalition on Climate Change and the Catholic Bishops’ Environmental Justice Program has been to focus on the themes of prudence, poverty and the common good, as well as Catholic social teaching. This eight-session module expands and explores these principles and has a strong emphasis on how climate change will impact the poor at home and abroad. It draws out arguments for and against action, and demonstrates—through both faith and science—the hazards to poor people of doing nothing.
This module also includes action items for stopping further global warming (mitigation) and what will be needed to help those who are poor both at home and abroad—i.e., those who will be most impacted by climate change (adaptation).
Registration for the module is $100; additional costs include a per person cost of $3.50 for books and a per group cost of $127.00 for DVDs. For more information, contact David Horvath at
