Pope Francis just delivered a game-changer on climate change

This morning Pope Francis released an unprecedented call to action on climate change, in a letter to 1.2 billion Catholics worldwide.

That's right: one the world's most prominent moral voices just cast climate action as a moral imperative. Whether or not you're Catholic, this is huge news, and you can help make sure it sends ripples near and far: 

Will you call on faith leaders in your community to join the call for climate action?

The Vatican’s stance couldn’t be clearer: climate change impacts us all, especially the poor. To prevent its catastrophic consequences we need an ethical and economic shift, a revolution in hearts and minds. Pope Francis’s encyclical letter puts the link between climate change and human activity center stage at a crucial moment for the climate movement:

"Humanity is called to create awareness of the need to change styles of life, production and consumption, to combat this warming or, at least, the human causes that produce or accentuate it.”

 

With this extraordinary call to safeguard the earth and humankind’s common good, it’s time for faith leaders across the planet to add their voices to the chorus calling for climate action.

Pope Francis has now joined a chorus of faith groups, businesses, and government leaders who recognize that climate change is a massive threat to our planet and its people. Let's make sure this moral shift happens from the ground up -- in every city, town, and community.

This encyclical is an historic, faith-led call to action for millions to stand together against climate change, a deeply moral issue we simply can’t ignore. The more voices in the chorus, the stronger the signal we’ll send to government leaders meeting in Paris later this year to negotiate a climate agreement.

 

We need the voices of faith and other leaders in your community. We need your voice.
