One response is Living the Change\, a multi-faith global campaign whi ch draws on our spiritual beliefs and values to inspire lifestyle choices which\, when aggregated with the actions of others\, will help limit globa l warming.\nToday\, we know that climate disruption is hurting most those who are already vulnerable\, and that Western greed is a large part of the problem. Consumerism tells us we never have &ldquo\;enough&rdquo\;. Livin g the Change calls on people of faith to lead in a global effort to re-set what is regarded as enough. We want to promote lifestyles of gratitude fo r life&rsquo\;s blessings\, lifestyles of care for the earth and all who d epend on it.\nGiven that close to six billion people globally identify wit h a religion (Pew Research Center\, 2017)\, the opportunity for these grou ps to create meaningful change through collective action cannot be ignored .\nWhat are religious people being asked to do? Ordinary people and commun ities have the power to help keep emissions down and thereby help to prote ct our common home. Through commitments in diet\, transportation\, and ene rgy use\, Living the Change invites individuals to fortify healthy\, balan ced relationships that help sustain the earth.\nBe part of our workshop an d join a globally-connected community of religious and spiritual instituti ons working together to champion sustainable ways of living.\nFree Registr ation: living-the-change.eventbrite.com.au\nFacilitator: Rabbi Jonathan Ke ren-Black | Australian Religious Response to Climate Change (ARRCC)\, Rabb i at Leo Baeck Centre and member of the Jewish Ecological Coalition (JECO) \nARRCC is a multi-faith\, member-based organisation of people from around Australia who are committed to taking action on climate change.
