Primates Press Briefing 4th February 2009

The Primates Meeting in Alexandria has heard of major concerns about the impact of global warming on the environment.

The meeting held a discussion, led by Archbishop of Aotearoa and New Zealand David Moxon. Also making a major contribution to the discussion was Archbishop Paul Sarkar of Bangladesh, a nation facing devastation if predictions of global warming are realized.

A PDF of the presentation by Archbishop David Moxon is available here.

The media conference (Wednesday February 4) also involved Archbishop Daniel Deng from Sudan who spoke of the dire situation in his country. A paper from the Episcopal Church of Sudan's Sudanese Development and Relief Agency is available here.
