Environmental negotiators meeting in Paris should strike a climate change deal to save a world "at the limits of suicide," Pope Francis said on Monday.
"I am not sure, but I can say to you 'now or never'," he told a group of reporters aboard the papal plane, en route home from Africa, according to Reuters. "Every year the problems are getting worse. We are at the limits. If I may use a strong word I would say that we are at the limits of suicide."
The comments come at the start of a United Nations-sponsored environmental summit in Paris, which nearly 150 world leaders are expected to attend.
Politicians have generally "done little" to deal with the growing problem, Francis said, according to the National Catholic Reporter.
"I am sure they have the good will to do it. And I wish that it will be so, and I pray for this," he said.

In the old days the Pope would fly TWA - Top WOP Aboard!
Y'know, because Human-Induced Climate Change (HICC) caused that mass murder/terrorism event in Paris -- and it WASN'T caused by ISLAM.
He’s as bad as a gay bath house.
Yet...he’s got a big fan base here ironically.
THE POPE IS A DOPE!
Oh, take your climate change and stuff up your ass, popester guy.
>>Cough ... I suppose you are right. The man in the White House pretends to be god.
Obama, like every Progressive, pretends to be a god. But this Pope pretends to be the Vicar of Christ while he is really just another Progressive. But since Progressive is the American euphemism for global communist and he isn’t American, then he must be...
That’s an oolld classic
It’s now or never..
Holy crap. Who fried the pOpe’s brains?
So the Pope is now a climate “expert”? Maybe he should sell the treasures in the Vatican or other Church property to fight this terrible global warming? Just sayin’...
He has a papal weather widget app or sumthin’. Everybody is an expert these days. ;-)
Well, Barry’s out to destroy America, it seems Pope Frank is set out to destroy the church.
The Papal Conclave, not to mention the Curia, must be smoking the same stuff that the electorate smoked to elect Barry and the running of the gubment..
On the other thread a FReeper misread communion as communism and I decided not to comment. Now it looks like Soros controls the Papacy as well.
It’s now or never,
defeat the heat,
if you can’t cycle,
then you can tweet ...
tomorrow
will be too warm,
your auto dealer,
you now must swarm ...
And I’m so glad (unfortunately) that my dad isn’t around to see this. Living through Barry would have been hard enough, but now the pope!
I would not want to have seen what it would have done to him.
But you would think that a Pope would have faith in the New Testament's version of the end times. Not the left's.
Why can’t the Pope just ask The Big Guy to fix it?
This Pope is crazy and makes me ashamed to be Catholic.
As in "Socialist Luddite."
It is more fitting, don't you think?
He doesn’t. He’s a well-rounded fraud.
