Climate Champion: Praise for Pontiff's Advocacy

He declared destroying the environment a sin, warned that humanity was turning the glorious creation of God into a "polluted wasteland full of debris, desolation and filth", and located the cause of the climate crisis in our "selfish and boundless thirst for power".

The messages Pope Francis delivered on the climate and environmental crises were forceful and direct. He called the leaders of fossil fuel companies into the Vatican to hold them to account; declared a global climate emergency in 2019; and in his final months, held a conference on "the economics of the common good".

Simon Stiell, the UN's top official on the climate, paid tribute: "Pope Francis has been a towering figure of human dignity, and an unflinching global champion of climate action as a vital means to deliver it. Through his tireless advocacy, [he] reminded us there can be no shared prosperity until we make peace with nature and protect the most vulnerable, as pollution and environmental destruction bring our planet close to 'breaking point'."
