God of blessings,
the universe sings of your glory.
Deepen our gratitude for all you have made
and awaken in us a renewed commitment
to care for the earth and each other.
Inspire world leaders at COP29,
with openness to listen to those most affected by climate change
and with courage to act urgently and wisely,
so that our common home may be healed and restored
and all people, and generations to come, may delight in it.
Amen.

What happened at COP29?
The COP29 talks in Azerbaijan ended with a weak deal to provide low-income countries with money to tackle the climate crisis.
Governments at the summit agreed to increase the amount of money countries hardest hit by the crisis will receive to $300bn a year.
But the agreement will not provide enough money for affected countries to prepare for climate disasters and rebuild after emergencies.
