Keeping in mind that Operation Noah is not only deeply realistic about the profound environmental challenges we face, but also ‘hope-inspired’, we will explore the role of the prophet and of the prophetic imagination in the context of the current climate and nature crises. How can Christian climate campaigners inspire the Church, our neighbours and our politicians to lead the way towards a safer climate and brighter future?
Operation Noah is looking for a new Bright Now Campaign Director – a paid, full-time role – as well as for volunteer trustees who have experience in human resources or fundraising, or have the ability to learn what is needed to be a trustee with responsibility for one of these areas. Please note that the deadline to apply for the Bright Now Campaign Director is Friday 8 September 2023.

‘Operation Noah celebrates the Church of England’s decision to divest from all fossil fuel companies, which we believe should send shockwaves around the world, making it clear that these companies are not operating in good faith and not preparing for the global transition to renewable energy. Overheating the planet and underinvesting in renewables while exploring for new oil and gas against scientific warnings, fossil fuel companies are an increasingly dangerous investment. In fact, a day is fast approaching when oil and gas assets will lose tremendous amounts of value as the world electrifies and decarbonises at pace.’

In our May 2023 newsletter, we explore how the Church of England’s National Investing Bodies are moving closer to divesting from fossil fuel companies, invite you to join our 20 June open Zoom call in which we will discuss the stakes for this July’s Church of England General Synod, celebrate the Diocese of Sheffield’s recent divestment commitment, ask you to ‘save the date’ for our 14 October Supporters’ Event and much more!
An op-ed written by Revd Dr Rachel Mash of Green Anglicans, Dr Cathy Rhodes of the Diocese of Sheffield and Revd Fletcher Harper of GreenFaith has made the case for Church divestment and a fossil fuel non-proliferation treaty in the wake of the G7 meeting in Hiroshima, Japan – a meeting in which leaders failed to commit to a phase out of fossil fuels.
