Wednesday evening was a culmination of an intense period of activity for faith communities in relation to climate change. The panelists at the Faith and Climate change seminar stressed the urgency of action from faith communities leading up to Copanhagen. Joel Edwards led the audience in some rigorous questioning of ho...w faith leaders go about mobilising their communities. Is this about fear or love? For Satish Kumarthe answer was definitely love he told the audience ‘I love the earth, I love the trees, I love the rivers, I love communities, I love you..’. Andy Atkins, executive director of Friends of the Earth, shared this belief that we must present tackling climate change in a positive attractive way and quoted Ed Miliband on the dangers of merely pedalling fear, ‘if Martin Luther King had said ‘I have a nightmare’ would anyone have followed him?’ Give us your views on how to engage faith communities in adressing climate changeRead More

As Rev Dr Joel Edwards, International Director for Micah Challenge, said in his opening remarks the timing of this debate could not have been more fitting as faith communities increasingly find their voice on the issue of climate change. ...

Vicky Suri I sent a proposal to "Tony Blair Faith Foundation", London regarding a "TeleCare Systems for Animals in Trauma". Mrs. Maneka Gandhi had supported me on that and I attached her "letter of support" also. There is no reply. What should I do ?

I am please to sing up in support of the Tony Blair Faith Foundation. We need greater understanding across faiths and for those with none for us to break barriers to solving problems of disease and poverty in the world. Too often religious intolerance is used as a weapon of oppression. Where faith can bring people toge...ther, religious intolerance and fear divides. Although I am not a Muslim, part of my own work examines Islamic ethics and assisted reproduction and faith and fertility and researches barriers to health care for women.Read More

Ravi Purushuttam

Ravi Purushuttam Best wishes were sent out to our Muslim brethren who are celebrating Eid-Ul-Fitr, and I extend the same wishes. However, I would like to see some more equality from a Faith Foundation-Hindus are celebrating the period of Navaratri and, unless I'm mistaken, I see no mention in the news feed. Please adapt a system where all religions receive equal mention.

Thanks so much for pointing this out Ravi and Micheal for your reflections. At the Tony Blair Faith Foundation we give equal importance to the festivals and celebration of all the faiths. You can go to our website and look through all the messages to followers of different faiths over the last year at http://www.tonyblairfaithfoundation.org/... Read Morehttp://www.tonyblairfaithfoundation.org/newsroom.html. However you are completely right that we had not yet put a message up for those celebrating Navratri and we can only apologise for this and let you know that this message is now up on our website and facebook.
