Have your say at Copenhagen ...

The Christian Muslim Forum and MADE in Europe are holding the Christian-Muslim Youth Forum on Climate Change (CMYF) on Thursday 15 October 2009 at Lambeth Palace in London hosted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, our Founding Patron. The CMYF is your chance to tell those in power what they should be doing about climate change.

You can start right now on this website - so get blogging! The key issues being discussed at the Copenhagen summit are:

• Mitigation
• Adaptation
• Technology Transfer
• Funding

Tell us what you want to say about climate change and what you believe we should be doing to tackle it. Join the discussion on the four key issues and share your thoughts on the relationship between Christianity, Islam and climate change.

Having taken part in the online discussion, 40 young Christians and Muslims aged 18-25 will meet at Lambeth Palace on the 15 October 2009 for the Christian-Muslim Youth Forum on Climate Change. They will spend the day discussing climate change with Muslim and Christian scholars and scientists and produce a statement to deliver to the UK negotiators for the UN Summit in Copenhagen in December. The Forum will be hosted and chaired by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Rowan Williams.
