Africa is incredibly vulnerable to the climate crisis.

But on top of this vulnerability – there is also a suffocating injustice.

Africa is responsible for only a fraction of global greenhouse gas emissions but is suffering disproportionately from the climate crisis.

I'm overwhelmed with gratitude for all the birthday wishes. This year, I would like to install more solar panels and stoves in schools, do more climate activism, educate myself more about faith and the environment, and have my book, A Bigger Picture, reach more people.

In the realm of climate justice, humanity is presented with both a moral imperative and a spiritual calling. The concept of stewardship over the Earth should be deeply embedded in us. God entrusted humanity with the responsibility to care for His creation.

Today is my birthday. 5 years ago, I never saw myself where I am today. However, God had a plan. He saw me as an activist, the Author of A Bigger Picture, and a Unicef goodwill Ambassador.

Thank you to everyone who has supported my work and celebrated every moment with me.

“We need to remember that environmental stewardship is an urgent calling. If the Church were to fully recognize environmental stewardship as co-participation in God's love for the world, imagine the impact that would have on the planet!”

When overconsumption threatens the lives of millions around the world, things need to change. The Church is called to be a leader in making this change. Right now, the Church can demonstrate God's love for creation through bold acts of stewardship.
