Did you know? (Sunday, November 19, 2023)
Our Caribbean is at a huge risk due to the rise in the planet’s temperature and its associated conditions. Human and non-human activities are the cause. The primary contributor to the rise is an increase in the release of greenhouse gases such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat and make our planet warmer. For the Caribbean, a warmer planet means decreased rainfall, long periods of drought, more frequent extreme storms, sea-level rise, destroyed coastlines and low-line developments. Stewardship of God’s creation means we (individually and collectively) must reduce our CO2 emissions (our Carbon footprint).
