A St Albans church is set to sound the alarm on climate change by ringing its bells this weekend.
St Stephen's Church will sound out the warning about climate change on Saturday, November 5 at 5pm.
Ringers will be taking part in a national initiative on the eve of the COP27 conference in Egypt and this will involve bellringers all over the country.
COP27 is the 27th United Nations Climate Change conference, to be held from November 6 to 18 in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.
World leaders, including Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, will come together to discuss action to tackle climate change
Next year's event is set to take place in Dubai.
The ringing of bells is usually associated with calls to church services and with national celebrations or mourning, but there have been times when they were designated as a means of warning against possible invasions, for example by Hitler or Napoleon.
This Saturday, they will be rung as a warning against the threat of global warming.
