The Vatican delegation to the U.N. Climate summit in Katowice, Poland, has issued an “urgent call for ambition, action, and true solidarity” in battling climate change.
At a press conference on Wednesday, Monsignor Bruno-Marie Duffé, coordinator of the Holy See delegation, said that the climate crisis has economic, social, and financial aspects, while insisting on the call of Pope Francis to listen attentively to the cries of the earth, which is “groaning out in travail.”
The Vatican delegation has also urged nations to pay heed to climate scientists and particularly the latest IPCC report, which “shows clearly the devastating impact of climate change on communities around the world.”
The Vatican also held up the contributions of other participants in the meeting, notably Mercy Chirambo, representative of Caritas Malawi (CADECOM), and Joseph Sapati Moeono-Kolio, representative of the Pacific Climate Warriors.
“The panelists strongly called for urgent action in solidarity with the most vulnerable,” the Vatican said in its communiqué.
For her part, Mercy Chirambo said that climate change has a specific impact on the life of women. “As it is clear, in our case, the impact on the life of human beings is not just physical but also emotional,” she said.

The Pope should stick to his religion and leave climate, immigration and politics to someone else.
Francis has so little knowledge of scripture and so little faith in Jesus, that he actually believes man controls his own destiny. If God created heaven and earth God controls heaven and earth. Man’s free will must be used in obedience to his creator. Francis is truly an anti-christ
I can’t believe Catholics still think their church is a Christian church. The lamp stand left long ago.
The Vatican has turned into a bureaucratic entity more interested in subjugating people than preaching Jesus...if they believe God, then they know that “climate change’ is not a priority because He has spoken and Jesus will return...they’re pretty much saying God is a liar and they can change what He has ordained...
Dear Vatican,
The last time I checked GOD controls the weather and you are supposed to have a Direct Line to GOD, why don’t you take it up with him??
