A Pew Research Center survey indicates that while highly religious Americans generally express less concern about climate change, young religious adults—including evangelicals under 30—are significantly more likely to acknowledge human-caused global warming and its severity. Across U.S. college campuses, various religious groups (Christian, Jewish, Muslim) are now advocating for collective action to reduce carbon emissions.
On April 26, 2023, a panel featured young Americans from diverse religious backgrounds. They discussed how their faith informs campus activism, shared their evolving perspectives, and explored their impact – or hoped-for impact – on older generations within and beyond their traditions.
Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac outline two distinct futures for 2050: one if we fail to meet Paris Agreement climate targets, and another if we achieve a carbon-neutral, regenerative world. They emphasize that immediate action is crucial to address our climate emergency, presenting this as our final, defining choice.
Figueres, a Costa Rican diplomat with 35 years of experience, served as Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change from July 2010. Her extensive background highlights the urgency of this pivotal moment.
