Operation Noah - Faith communities tackling climate change

Climate change resulting from manmade emissions of greenhouse gases is affecting the welfare and health of millions of people in the poorest parts of the world.

Operation Noah is a christian organization campaigning for political leadership, and for cuts in emissions to prevent uncontrolled climate change. And it is bringing forward just and positive solutions to this crisis.

St Francis Church in Ashton Gate is setting up an Operation Noah support group in South Bristol.

If you would like to get in involved or to find out more please ring Mark Letcher on 0117 902 4019.
