This month, we reflect on the meteoric rise of solar energy, look back at the mass environmental lobby of MPs that we participated in this month, join other Christian organisations in calling on the PM to stop the massive Rosebank oil & gas field & more. operationnoah.org/july-2025-news…
Should churches treat the land under their control differently? Does our hope in Jesus lead us to show greater love and care for God’s world? Our latest blog sums up our trio of Growing Hope videos featuring inspiring stories of sustainable land use. 🌳🤎🚜operationnoah.org/growing-hope-t…

As the dust settles on the #ActNowChangeForever Mass Lobby last week, we've been reflecting on an historic day that brought people from across the UK to Westminster to have meaningful conversations with their MPs about the climate & nature crisis. operationnoah.org/mass-lobby-act…

Extreme heat is no longer a rare event — it has become the new normal. I'm experiencing it firsthand in Spain during the Financing for Development Conference. The planet is getting hotter & more dangerous — no country is immune. We need more ambitious #ClimateAction now.

👏 🌊 Great news! Thank you, Emma Hardy. Our oceans are vital to our climate, ecosystems and livelihoods. Protecting them shows we're serious about restoring nature by 2030. But this must work with other plans—without a joined-up framework for nature and climate, we risk failure.…
MAJOR OCEAN WIN! 📢 UK Government commits to ratifying the High Seas Treaty (aka the BBNJ) by the end of the year, as confirmed by Ocean Minister Emma Hardy at the UN Ocean Conference just now 🎉🎉🎉 @Oceana @HugoSAS
Catch up on the news of our Open Letter hand in on #WorldEnvironmentDay last Thursday. We had some very positive conversations about church land use with church leaders and representatives. operationnoah.org/open-letter-ha…
On #WorldEnvironmentDay we met representatives from most major UK denominations to talk about our vision for using Church Land for climate, nature and people. I was pleased to chat to UCB News all about it.
An environmental charity has challenged UK churches to use their land to help tackle climate change. @OperationNoah say 1% of all UK land is owned by the church, and showed their national organisations what some local churches are managing - listen🔊: timbre-player.sharp-stream.com/embed/item/573…
To mark World Environment Day, Operation Noah is calling on UK Churches, which own 1% of UK land, to achieve net zero land emissions by 2030, and is today hand-delivering an Open Letter with 500+ signatures to leaders of major UK denominations. operationnoah.org/500-signatorie…
Our Open Letter to Church Leaders about church land use includes the chance to share about a local project which has inspired you. Let's show we care about how church land is used: locally, regionally and nationally.
Church land should work for the benefit of climate & nature, & many UK churches are doing just that! On 5 June, we'll deliver an Open Letter to UK Church leaders, calling on them to ensure Church land is part of the solution, not part of the problem. Sign: operationnoah.org/bright-now-cam…
Really enjoyed this webinar on Monday - and World Farmers Day is a very topical day to share the video if you'd like to catch up. So much Church owned land is agricultural land so we need to be supporting and encouraging good practice.
On World Farmers Day, let’s celebrate this vital work which provides sustainable food for us, especially climate & nature-friendly farming. Our 2nd Growing Hope webinar includes inspiring examples from @NFFNUK & @FarmCO2Toolkit. Watch: operationnoah.org/supporting-far… #WorldFarmersDay
Join us today at 1pm for this webinar featuring great speakers from Nature Friendly Farming Network @NFFNUK , @LeeAbbeyDevon and @FarmCO2Toolkit . #ChurchLand
