Pope Francis Urges Immediate Global Action on Climate Change

Pope Francis has released a new document titled "Laudate Deum" as a follow-up to his 2015 encyclical "Laudato Si'," emphasizing the urgent need for dramatic measures to address climate change. The document warns of the grave consequences of ignoring the threat and highlights the disproportionate impact on vulnerable communities. Pope Francis criticizes those who deny the human origin of climate change and calls for a new decision-making procedure to tackle global problems. He also emphasizes the spiritual motivations behind climate action and urges the global community to achieve net-zero carbon emissions.
