Episode 31 of Eternity‘s podcast With All Due Respect

Megan and Michael welcome “ecotheologian” Mick Pope into the studio to talk about climate change. Recorded before Australia’s bushfire crisis worsened, this episode tackles big questions such as “is climate science watertight?” and “what’s more important – climate action or evangelism?”

Our hosts discuss the theology behind climate action and whether or not the church should get involved in this “political” issue.

Also in this ep, an exploration of 2040 – an Aussie hybrid feature documentary by award-winning director Damon Gameau (That Sugar Film). The film explores what the future could look like by the year 2040 if we put our minds to it now.
