• Do you feel overwhelmed by the frequent mentions of the ‘climate crisis’ in the media?
• Is it really a crisis or just over-blown fear-mongering?
• Would you be interested in having a better understanding of the science behind climate change so that you can make your own decisions?

Portsmouth Diocese is running a one-hour course on Carbon Confidence with the aim of helping us to understand:

• what is happening to our global climate and why;
• how it affects us all;
• and what we can do to see things change for the better.

This course will look at the science and history of climate change, with some useful data sources and explainer videos. You will feel better equipped to talk about climate change and to understand some of the language being used to discuss the issue. And you will (hopefully) be inspired to find ways of engaging with lifestyle, church and community projects that aim to effect change in a positive way.

Course leader: Matt Lockwood, Net Zero Carbon Support Officer for Portsmouth Diocese.

So we can estimate numbers RSVP by 14th October to Miriam Sampson, or text 07880 732846.

The seminar will take place after the midweek Eucharist at the church, and everyone is welcome to attend that at 7pm. Refreshments will be served between the Eucharist and the beginning of the seminar.
