ROME — Pope Francis told financiers Thursday they must help calculate the “ecological debt” the global north owes to the global south.
We cannot overlook “the ‘ecological debt’ that exists especially between the global north and south,” the pontiff said in a letter to participants in a meeting of the World Bank Group and International Monetary Fund.

The commie Pope says what?
To: ChicagoConservative27
We keep them from starving to death. Does that count, or does the Pope require a full Camp of the Saints scenario?

Global South owes the Global North for the technology invent in the Global North.
That is probably a LOT more than the “ecological debt” this Commie thinks we owe the Global South. But we’ll call it even if he’ll shut up.

Yes, exactly. He has a non-Christian agenda. Communism is anti-human, and therefore anti-Christian.

Pope Soros owes a theological debt to Jesus Christ.
And He will collect.

I looked it up. The net worth of the Vatican is at least $10 billion. And the Vatican is obviously in the “Global North”. So how much of that $10 billion has Francis pledged?
To avoid being called a rank hypocrite, Francis should pledge at least $5 billion. That would still leave him with plenty of money.
Just do it, Francis.

Correct but may I add a piece? It’s also about skimming a huge chunk off the top aka corruption.

Yup, we’ve sent billions if not trillions of aid to various third world shitholes and it never makes it to the lower class citizens. Even when we send food, the military that protects the elite might eat pretty well but none will get to the lowly citizens.

Please explain that Man is INCAPABLE of changing the climate of God's creation. Teach the Scientific Method and the fact the political consensus has no part in it.
Teach that CO2 is NOT a pollutant, and in fact a necessary component of the atmosphere.
Teach that increased levels of CO2 in the atmosphere FOLLOW periods of global temperature increase by about 85 years and are NOT a leading indicator for future temperature increases.
