KEEPING CLIMATE CONCERN
St Cuthbert’s Island, off Lindisfarne, Northumbria.
An islet under threat from rising sea levels. The islet
has been adopted by Eco-Verses as
a symbol of the global risk to low-lying places.
Today, because the UK is voting in a General Election, I am posting a CLIMERICK written for my companion blog Eco-Verses where you will find a whole collection of Climericks covering many different aspects of Climate concern. I am posting it here because I hope that Christians who read it here will see Climate concern as a Kingdom Issue and maybe encourage their own churches to make it clear that Eco-concern is a part of the ethos of their church. A pop-up display is in the final stage of development on the Eco-Verses site and could prove a useful way of signalling concern both to regular members of a congregation and visitors to the church.
On the day for electoral choice,
ask will who you choose raise their voice
for the need to go green
and defy all the spleen
that the fossil fuel lobby employs?
