The Archbishop of Canterbury Reverend Justin Portal Welby is in Fiji to conduct a meeting with other fellow Archbishops from the region to discuss the issue of climate change.
Welby who was formally welcomed in a traditional ceremony at Boron House today says the issue of climate change is the duty of all.
He says seeing Fiji’s vulnerability to the effects of climate change has slightly changed his perspective that it is also an issue of today and of the future.

Archbishop Welby adds that there must be collaboration to minimize the effects in the future.
He says that through Fiji’s global leadership in COP 23, this issue has been brought to the attention of people around the world.
Some members of the members of parliament, church leaders, students and diplomats were present at the ceremony hosted by the President.
