COP31: Climate and Conflict
Texas Impact is on the ground in Antalya, Türkiye, at the United Nations climate negotiations known as COP31. Each day, Texas Impact staff and other U.S. faith delegates are reporting on the proceedings, and sharing conversations with global colleagues about the state of play and the urgency of the moment.

In two video dispatches from Day Two at COP31, Regina Q. Banks, Director of the Lutheran Office of Public Policy, California, speaks with two members of the Lutheran church in Palestine about climate justice in a time of conflict.
And on Texas Impact’s Substack, Executive Director Bee Morehead writes about Earth Information Day:
“As is the case every year, the annual United Nations climate negotiations—COP31–started with a diagnostic appointment. The complete workup of Earth’s health yielded a number of alarming developments. And like any battery of diagnostic tests, Earth Information Day revealed the need for more tests.”
