A Narcissist Celebrating His Own Encyclical
ROME To mark the five-year anniversary of Pope Franciss eco-encyclical, Laudato Si, the Vatican Thursday published a users guide for both parishes and public officials on how to implement the document, including such concrete measures as a balanced diet, carpooling to reduce energy consumption, recycling, and drip-by-drip irrigation to curb water waste.
The document also calls on legislators and governments to adopt eco-friendly policies, such as enshrining water as a universal human right and promoting international efforts to protect vulnerable ecosystems such as the Amazon and the Congo River Basin.
Amphitrite, perhaps? Bergoglio's Pachamama won't like that.
