As we approach the conclusion of the United Nations’ COP27 on climate change in Sharm El-Sheik, Egypt, (6-17, November) and anticipate the start of the UN’s COP15 on biodiversity in Montreal, Canada, (7-19, December), Columban missionaries are lifting up voices from their lived experience in places where the impact of climate change and biodiversity loss is being felt in devastating ways.  Columban missionaries will be joining a delegation of faith leaders in Montreal to bring their spiritual messages of hope, respect, justice and peace to the negotiations.
