Welcome to our JPIC newsletter for December. The record breaking temperatures over our continent in the last few days, can only serve to keep reminding us of the crucial need for climate action. If we take heed of the ancient Advent call to ‘stay awake’ we will notice the planet calling us to an urgent ecological conversion. We are all able to do something: reduce, recycle and re-envisage our life style to a simpler way of living.
