Religious world leaders gathered to call on G7 ministers to protect our Planet, to “transform this desert into a forest”. And send them a letter to encourage cooperation and peace.
Pope Francis’ encyclical is a renewable challenge to a static politics
An effective cooperation for the Earth is needed to avoid a climate catastrophe. Here’s how to follow up on Pope Francis’ words.
This encyclical is a praise to Mother Nature. Laudato Si’ recalls the text most loved by environmentalists, animalists and all those who believe in an ecumenical Christianity. The defence of renewable sources, animal dignity, GM-free agriculture, and the condemnation of injustices and dominant powers characterising a technocracy that overlooks needs, consensus and the future represent a real change to the current static status of politics.
It’s no coincidence that the first attack on Pope Francis comes from one of the oil industry’s lobbyists, the umpteenth Bush (Jeff), White House candidate. Another fossilized piece of the past that remains unresponsive to the United Nations’ numerous warnings on climate change.
