The Evangelical Climate Initiative (ECI) is an initiative by some American evangelical leaders and organizations designed to mitigate global warming. ECI's first statement, calling for reductions in carbon dioxide emissions, was released on February 8, 2006 and was signed by eighty-six evangelical leaders and organizations. Signatories included Rick Warren, the presidents of thirty-nine evangelical colleges, and the leader of the Salvation Army.
