FAITH and the ENVIRONMENT

  • St. Patrick’s Gateway Centre Patrick Street Waterford, WD Ireland (map)

5 talks, each Monday between 17th February and 18th March, 2024

7.30pm
St. Patrick’s Gateway Centre, Waterford.

Given the important and abiding challenge of Climate Change, its already discernible negative impact on our lives, and the urgency to address it, these talks are for people of all faiths and none.  It is our hope that they will help engender further thought and debate on the need to mitigate the on-going adverse effects of human behaviour on this precious planet and its inhabitants.

Each speaker will bring her/his distinctive response to the general title, Faith and the Environment.
