Ladner Rotarian Rev. Simbarashe Basvi, Rector at St. David's Anglican Church in Tsawwassen, saw climate devastation firsthand when he was serving as a priest in Chiwundura, Zimbabwe. He witnessed crop failure, migration, hunger, poverty, and desperation. His desire to restore dignity to smallholder farmers drove him to put theology in action, researching to develop a local version of the organization Farming God's Way: Conservation Farming as Climate Justice and Hope. Simbarashe spoke to his fellow Rotarian club members on June 17, 2025.
