I have just returned from an incredible weekend at the Ecumenical Advocacy Days Seminar in Washington D.C. We looked at the effects of Global Warming on our World and prepared for a day on Capital Hill with our legislators, engaging in constructive dialogue on solutions to the effects of Global Warming on the world's poor.
Women and Children are hit the hardest when the effects of Global Warming attach their communities.....
Drought in West Africa, causes women to travel farther for the daily water supply, often contaminated by wildlife.
Sea Surges and flooding bring with it displacement and disease associated with stagnant water bore illnesses. Women are the ones who have to manage the family in this transition.
Quality of life, income, disease, economics.........women and children are suffering and it will only get worse.
What are your thoughts?
