From Christian Today-Anglican bishops from across South America have united in a call to governments around the world to implement zero deforestation policies following the devastating fires that have raged in the Amazon.
In a joint statement, the bishops said that the fires reflected "human pride and disobedience against God's command to be stewards of His creation".
They want to see governments implement laws and programmes aimed at protecting and restoring the Amazon rainforest as they warned of destruction to biodiversity and homes.
They said that delaying such action could see an increase in natural disasters.
"We believe that without genuine repentance on the part of all of us, we will continue to pay a huge price with greater disasters than those we have recently seen in our countries," they said.
