Caring for Creation in the Solomon Islands

A talk by Rev Rich Clarkson on his visit, the impacts of climate change, and local responses.

At the March market, we introduced easy ways to cut energy bills. And we took our thermal camera along, offering home visits to help track where the cold is getting into homes – and the heat leaking out. 

Uninsulated walls leak more heat, making their outside surface warmer (orange) than the cavity-insulated walls (blue). The camera can also identify warm spots around windows and doors, as well as poorly-insulated roofs.
