In a dramatic declaration punctuated by dire threats and warnings, the Vatican is urging the world to decarbonize the energy system as early as possible and no later than mid-century to avoid irreversible damage to humans and ecosystems.
In its newly released Final Declaration: Our Planet, Our Health, Our Responsibility from a November workshop on climate change, air pollution and health, the Pontifical Academy of Sciences warns that there is less than a decade to put in place a series of sweeping measures to counteract the effects of human-induced climate change. The time to act is now, it reads.
Surprisingly for a statement coming from an academy of science, the document is riddled with unscientific assertions in a bizarre mix of political ideology and apocalyptic hyperbole.
With unchecked climate change and air pollution, the very fabric of life on Earth, including that of humans, is at grave risk, the text begins. We propose scalable solutions to avoid such catastrophic changes. There is less than a decade to put these solutions in place to preserve our quality of life for generations to come.
In what can only be termed an attempt to generate mass hysteria, the statement envisions a dark scenario not unlike those depicted by past doomsday fads such as the supposed population explosion and catastrophic oil shortages of the 1970s.

Go yank it, Vatican.
Why don’t they issue a statement that says; “PRAY and repent and ask God to help the earth!” instead?
it seems that Al Gore is now the Pope.
Somebody please tell the head of the Catholic church that God is in charge.
Not him.
Not Al Gore.
Well there ya go, even the Vatican has faith in Climate Change.
How much more scientific proof do you deniers need?
Just going to keep my eyes and heart on Jesus.
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
Genesis 1:28
Just as the Vatican surely recognizes that God created the Heavens and the Earth I hope they recognize the distinct possibility that *God* is responsible for all that is happening with “climate” and not mankind.
Let’s see so far today I learned that the Pope is not happy with USA recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and the world is going to be destroyed because bogus fear tactics regarding climate change.
The only one who can stop the climate from changing is God. That’s their balliwick.
Many similarities to the NFL as an institution. They are both imploding, doubling down on stupidity and inflicting irreparable damage to themselves. I am pretty much done with both. Both are considered “religions” to many LOL.
You know a Vatican statement like the one referenced here is a diabolical fraud because it doesn't even mention GOD once. This would be like McDonald's coming out with a menu that has no hamburgers on it.
Comrade Pope should direct his efforts to controlling his extended staff of predatory queer priests.
because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. -Romans 1:25
Wow....glad the RCC cleared that up...
The very fabric of life hangs in the balance...!!!
All along I thought it was Al Gore bank account...
How any RC is not completely ashamed of this fraud is beyond me...
Pope Francis the Red.
The myth of Man made climate change is a product of the following agendas;
Communism
Russian desire to maintain high prices for their oil and gas
Population control
Anti-capitalism
Anti-Americanism
Discouragement of third world development to continue exploitation of their resources
