"Ten years ago, Pope Francis signed the Encyclical Letter Laudato Si’, devoted to care for our common home. It has had an extraordinary impact, inspiring countless initiatives and teaching everyone to listen to the twofold cry of the Earth and of the poor.
"I greet and encourage the Laudato Si’ movement and all those who carry on this commitment."
=======
The Laudato Si’ movement's mission:
"To inspire and mobilize the Catholic community to care for our common home and achieve climate and ecological justice, in collaboration with all people of good will."
=======
Pope Leo XIV has stood with his predecessors.
-- Pope Saint John Paul:
"We must therefore encourage and support the "ecological conversion" which in recent decades has made humanity more sensitive to the catastrophe to which it has been heading."
"Man is no longer the Creator's "steward," but an autonomous despot, who is finally beginning to understand that he must stop at the edge of the abyss."
=======
Pope Benedict XVI:
"The way humanity treats the environment influences the way it treats itself, and vice versa. The Church has a responsibility towards creation and she must assert this responsibility in the public sphere.
"In so doing, she must defend not only earth, water and air as gifts of creation that belong to everyone.
"She must above all protect mankind from self-destruction."
=======
-- Pope Francis:
"Humanity is called to recognize the need for changes of lifestyle, production and consumption, in order to combat this warming or at least the human causes which produce or aggravate it."

Pope Francis was an inhumane, cruel man. Only MT Suit does not see it
He was indeed a dichotomy.
