Customer Reviews
In Laudate Deum, Pope Francis is definitely calling on us all to take action. This is indeed a climate crisis as this past summer amply demonstrated at home and abroad, and as the Swedish schoolgirl put it some time ago 'I'm here to say our house is on fire'. Francis says 'I have realised that our responses have not been adequate while the world in which we live is collapsing and may be nearing breaking point'. There are so many people who fail to take action in the mistaken belief that the actions of one person or of one group or even of one nation will not make a difference. But as one supermarket chain keeps reminding us 'Every little helps'. So before you book a flight - in the way that thousands of people are doing - for a visit/trip/holiday that is not really necessary, just think of the message in Laudate Deum and of the damage being done to Our Common Home.
