Presbyterian Church: Eat less meat

Presbyterian Church Association of NZ: Eat less meat, close the curtains and take the bus say church scientists

"We need to act on climate change right now; the need is real and urgent", says Dr Audrey Jarvis, chairperson of the Interchurch Bioethics Council (ICBC).

The ICBC has produced a new study that explains what individuals and communities can do to reduce climate change. Leaving the car at home, insulating your home and eating less meat are just a few of the changes people can make that could make a big difference to our future.

Written in easy to understand language, the study outlines what the situation is, how it came about, what the Kyoto Protocol and Carbon Credits are and where the NZ Government stands on these.

Titled, Real Urgent and Personal: A Christian approach to global climate change, the booklet contains material suitable for group or individual study. It can be downloaded free from: www.justice.anglican.org.nz/icbc
