Together they seem to be a strong force for both climate change mitigation and adaptation. Good news for sure." -Nelson @ #COP23 #COP23Bonn

In addition, Canada, Mexico and 15 governors from the US signed a declaration affirming their commitment to addressing climate change. These include CA, WA, OR, NY. Their combined economies are probably close to half the US economy.

I can’t do their stories justice in a few lines but suffice it to say that the 3 organizations speaking on the panels were helping the locals in the big world of project development. Seems like something Christians could do - on the global stage and on the Home front.
