Inspiring the journey to COP26
The UN climate talks, COP26, will take place in Glasgow in November this year. The focus is on 'Uniting the World to Tackle Climate Change'. It is of global significance.Of course, I have always been aware that climate change is something I should take seriously but, to be truthful, I had done very little. However, in January 2020 I experienced the catastrophic outcome of a severe summer drought in Australia. Suddenly climate change became personal.

Rebuilding society through peacemaking and disarmament
Times of crisis expose existing inequalities and other sources of violence in society. If we are to build a humane, just and sustainable society, peacemaking and disarmament must be our guiding lights.

Not zero: why we should be wary of ‘net zero’ climate targets
As the UK was hosting its 'Climate Ambition Summit' last December, the COP26 Coalition projected a message on to the Scottish Event Campus in Glasgow, where the UN climate talks will be held. The message read "Net Zero 2050? Your Climate 'Ambition' Is A Death Sentence".

Heeding the voice of conscience: a call to continued action
On 15 May we marked Conscientious Objectors' Day. At one of the ceremonies around Britain, I joined people gathered in Tavistock Square, London to hear music, poetry and testimony in the leafy gardens where the conscientious objection memorial stone rests. We laid flowers for all those who refused to kill. You can watch a recording on the Peace Pledge Union website.

Would Little Amal go to Rwanda this year?
Last year, many British Quakers took part in or witnessed a series of events throughout Britain in which a 3m tall puppet, Little Amal, journeyed from the Syrian border via Dover to Manchester, joining in events and rallies during her journey. Amal symbolised the search for a new life of thousands of migrants and asylum seekers. The events were inspiring and full of hope.

Silence and hope: a witness to the impact of climate breakdown
On a cool day in central London, I stood in Jubilee Gardens holding a cardboard sign asking passers-by to sign a petition for loss and damage funding. Nearby, faith leaders stood in a circle, leading a silent vigil.Parents with pushchairs strolled past, some tugged to a stop by curious children. Opposite the park, Shell's headquarters loomed above us, rows of small windows failing to give any insight on the destructive work taking place inside.

Will COP27 deliver a loss and damage fund?
The next chapter in the struggle for loss and damage finance is about to take place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt. Thanks to the ongoing efforts of campaigners and Global South countries, the issue is on the provisional agenda for COP27. This still has to be agreed by parties at the beginning of the summit, but there appears to be little appetite for a long argument over the agenda.

Time to fill the bucket: the COP27 outcome on loss and damage
I spent an anxious Saturday afternoon in November watching for updates as the news began to filter through. Late that night, it was confirmed as COP27 closed: parties had reached an agreement that would see a loss and damage fund established.

Time to breathe
"Corrymeela begins when you leave", say the words carved into wood above the door. Corrymeela's residential centre near Ballycastle in Northern Ireland, was the setting for the first in-person gathering of the Peacebuilding Network (UK and Ireland). Corrymeela has been facilitating work on peace and reconciliation since 1965 before, during, and after the Troubles. As a membership organisation, it offers much more than a residential space but that's what we needed as we gathered together in warm May sunshine.
