Sally Bingham, “A Religious Response to Global Warming”

Is global warming fundamentally a moral issue, and if so, what role should the religious community play in addressing it? Sally Bingham, President of The Regeneration Project in San Francisco, California, argues that global warming stands as a preeminent moral issue of our time, and that the multi-faith religious community holds a critical role in confronting it.

In this talk, Bingham explores how faith communities across traditions are uniquely positioned to educate, inspire, and motivate positive change on a global scale, leveraging their moral authority and community networks to move beyond individual awareness toward collective action. She frames religious engagement with climate change not as a peripheral concern, but as central to the moral mission of faith institutions, calling on religious leaders and communities to actively lead in the fight against global warming. Bingham’s remarks reinforce The Regeneration Project’s ongoing mission to mobilize faith-based environmental action.
