As a Church of Scotland congregation, how can we follow the instruction of the General Assembly 2009?
The deliverance agreed by the General Assembly 2009 is to Instruct Presbyteries, in association with the Church and Society Council, to produce a plan for each congregation in their bounds, setting out how they will measure energy consumption in their church buildings, ascertain their carbon footprint and achieve a year-on-year reduction of 5% of their carbon footprint using the Eco-Congregation Scotland footprint module; and instruct the Church and Society Council, in consultation with the General Trustees, to report to the General Assembly of 2010 on the implementation of this instruction.
