'No faith in coal': religious leaders urge Scott Morrison to take climate action

Open letter calls on the prime minister to block all new coal and gas projects, including Adani

More than 150 religious leaders have called on Scott Morrison to acknowledge the world faces a climate emergency and block all new coal and gas projects, including Adani's Carmichael mine.

In an open letter headed "no faith in coal", the leaders say the climate crisis is a profoundly moral problem and Australia's response will be crucial in addressing it.
