Description

Between 30 November and 11 December, world leaders will gather in Paris in a crucial meeting aiming to achieve a new international agreement on climate change, and keep global temperatures below dangerous levels of 2°C warming.

We, as Young Marists, want to have a say in our future too. We are planning a thoroughly exciting month of prayer, action and advocacy, and you’re invited to be a part of it. As Marists, we will strive to do this in ‘the way of Mary’, and open a dialogue with the entire Marist family, our Church and broader society. As Catholics, we will respond to Pope Francis’ call to care for our common home.

The path to the march will be be following these steps:

EXCHANGE – Care for our Common Home - November 8 - Randwick - Starting the month with Exchange, we will pray, reflect on and discuss Pope Francis’ ground-breaking letter, Laudato Si, which calls us to care for our common home.

MYM ENVIRO CHALLENGE – Online - From November 9 to 28, we will have some fun daily challenges for you to try and some really practical ideas for caring for our common home. Ft. guest blogger Francine sharing your achievements in a weekly blog!

PEOPLE’S CLIMATE MARCH – November 29 – The Domain, Sydney - Our month culminates in participating in the Peoples’ Climate March, set to be the largest climate march in history! Our united voice is big enough to steer our leaders towards a successful agreement in Paris. Last year this event attracted 675,000 people at over 2800 events in 160 countries. This year is set to be bigger, as we march alongside many groups including Caritas and Catholic Earthcare, the ecological agency of the Australian Catholic Bishops.
