ROME — The Vatican suggested Thursday a Biden presidency might inject new life into the stagnant Paris Climate Accord after President Trump pulled the U.S. out of the deal in 2017.
The Vatican COVID-19 Commission announced Thursday that it is organizing a webinar next week in preparation for a December 12 global climate summit to be co-hosted by the United Nations and the UK to mark the fifth anniversary of the Paris Agreement.
In its preparatory document, the Vatican team lamented the lack of initiative and commitment around the Paris climate goals, something it said needs to gain renewed momentum ahead of the U.N. Climate Change Conference (COP 26) to be held in Glasgow in November 2021.

Where does this clown get off making wild unsubstantiated claims like this?

Pope Francis, the Antichrist?
Why doesn’t the Pope get out of being a pope and become a politician already?
He can’t stop talking about politics. Which no one wants to hear about at church.
When I first moved here, I went to a service and the pastor went on an anti-American tirade. Had NOTHING to do with faith, or Christ.
I never, ever went back to that church.
Spirit of Amalek?
“Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?”
Not smart enough.
Well played!
Frankie needs a wing-man like Dementia Joe.
The catholic church still trying to get control of the US, one of the oppositions to electing Kennedy was the fear of the Catholic Church, ie the pope running America. It appears someone was ahead of their time about this prediction.
