  In Love in a Time of Climate Change: Honoring Creation, Establishing Justice, author Sharon Delgado invites readers to embark on a deepening journey of faith that integrates personal spirituality with action for climate justice. The book explains and demonstrates a process of discernment through which to reflect on the challenge of climate change and to discern a faithful response based on Jesus’s teaching to love God above all and our neighbors as ourselves.  
  This revised edition updates the facts. It presents what climate scientists say now about our rapidly heating planet, its causes, impacts, progression, and likely future scenarios. It describes the global movement for climate justice and engages with major conversations taking place about climate change today.  
  This edition builds on the book’s primary themes. Its premise is that in this time of climate change, loving God must include honoring God’s creation and loving our neighbors must include working to establish justice. We are called to honor and care for creation, the interconnected community of life of which we humans are a part, because creation is an expression of the presence and love of God. We are called to work to establish justice because in this time of globalized environmental harm we can’t always see the links of interdependence, responsibility, and systemic exploitation that tie us to our global neighbors. Working for climate justice for the wellbeing of all is an expression of loving our neighbors, near and far, present and future. 
  This book is an invitation to move beyond self-preoccupation and to expand our understanding of who we are and why we are here on this incomparable planet in this time of unprecedented challenge. Love in a Time of Climate Change offers a way to rise to the occasion: to face the truth about the realities of climate change, follow the light, and live with love into the future as children of the earth, children of the universe, children of God.
