The lecture “Clean and green – law and the Carbon neutral Church” by Morag Ellis QC, Dean of the Arches and Auditor, which was first delivered last month, will be repeated on 4 November at 5.30 pm. The date has been chosen to coincide with the COP26 summit in Glasgow and her lecture will be delivered via Zoom so that more members are able to participate.
Specific judgments relating to “Net zero”, church heating, and the consistory courts are reviewed in our posts here, here, and here.
