Members of the catholic diocese of Fort Portal, Uganda join 6300 churches around the world answered the joint call of CIDSE, Caritas Internationalis, the World Council of Churches and APRODEV and participated in the International Bell Ringing on December 13th. The bells rang 350 times to call for urgent action on climate change. The bells rang 350 times as a reference to the 350 CO2 parts per million in our atmosphere, considered by scientists as the safe upper limit for the planet and the people. An alarm call sent to those negotiating the measures needed to secure our shared future. Sunday 13 December marked the height of the talks at UN climate negotiations in the Danish capital.
