1st - 31st January 2022

We choose climate-friendly living because we reject the desecration of people and planet and embrace joyful lives of simplicity and solidarity.

As 2022 approaches, let’s start the New Year by committing to climate justice! This January, we invite you to join in “Time for Living the Change”, a season to make your New Year’s low-carbon resolution and live it out for a month.

Climate-friendly living choices send a clear message.
Rooted in gratitude for life and for Earth itself, our spiritual paths guide us to care for creation or nature, live simply, avoid waste, and love our neighbours, especially the most vulnerable.

Individual behavior change alone can’t save the Earth.
Massive corporations, unwilling governments, and greedy financial institutions stand in the way of climate justice. Aligning our lives with our faiths is one way that we stand firm against injustice.

Here’s how it works:
After registering, you will choose one new low-carbon lifestyle change you will adopt between 1-31 January, join a multi-faith community around the world journeying together, and celebrate your achievement at the end of the month!

Many people of faith are living the change:
Embodying their beliefs and values and making a concrete difference. Read their honest, inspiring, and spiritually rich testimonials below!!

We do live in a world where we advocate change all the time (...) but we do not take any steps ourselves. Allah informs us that He will not change a community until they change themselves.

My children have been my inspiration and role models. They have educated me about air pollution, plastics and waste. They choose not to fly, follow a vegan diet and they walk wherever possible.
