World churches group, Lutheran global body and ACT Alliance say COP31 must fund climate justice as promised

Christian groups, including the World Council of Churches, the ACT Alliance, and the Lutheran World Federation, are to speak with one voice at the COP31 climate conference in Antalya, Türkiye, from Nov. 9 to 20. Noting that "creation is a sacred gift, not a commodity," the church groupings and ACT are calling on governments to deliver climate justice: cut emissions and pay the finance they once promised.
