Reports on Green Christian’s Day Conference,
Carrs Lane URC Centre, Birmingham B4 7SX, 11am to 5pm, Saturday 29 March, 2014
Keynote speaker: Dan O’Neill Lecturer in ecological economics at the University of Leeds; chief economist at the Center for the Advancement of the Steady State Economy (CASSE); and co-author of Enough is Enough.
Economic growth has turned toxic – but there really is an alternative. And God’s people are called to the cutting edge of change. What might a genuinely sustainable economy look like? And how can the churches make it happen? At the conference we made some initial steps on the journey to a happier, healthier, and holier world.
