Pope Francis urged governments on Friday to make good on their commitments to curb global warming, warning that climate change, continued unsustainable development and rampant consumption threatens to turn the Earth into a vast pile of rubble, deserts and refuse.
Francis made the appeal at a Vatican conference marking the third anniversary of his landmark environmental encyclical Praise Be. The document, meant to spur action at the 2015 Paris climate conference, called for a paradigm shift in humanitys relationship with Mother Nature.
n his remarks, Francis urged governments to honor their Paris commitments and said institutions like the IMF and World Bank had important roles to play in encouraging reforms promoting sustainable development.
There is a real danger that we will leave future generations only rubble, deserts and refuse, he warned.
The Paris accord, reached by 195 countries, seeks to avoid some of the worst effects of climate change by curbing global greenhouse gas emissions via individual, nonbinding national plans. U.S. President Donald Trump has said the U.S. will pull out of the accord negotiated by his predecessor unless he can get a better deal.
Fridays conference was the latest in a series of Vatican initiatives meant to impress a sense of urgency about global warming and the threat it poses in particular to the worlds poorest and most marginalized people.

Same place Al Gore got his.
Divinity College is where those who can’t spell Science go to learn about Science.
On a side note, I took a geology class in college as I was thinking about looking at Petroleum Engineering.
You wouldn’t believe how many Journalism students took it so they could get their science requirement.
Easiest science class I ever took and I’m glad I jumped to electronics.
Pay more tax money to governments and billionaires he says. That will change the climate back.
Blinded by his non-Christain beliefs and arrogance, the sooner he is gone, the better. He is incapable of "healing himself"!
This Pope is not a religious figure. He does what he does for popularity and money.
The whore of Babylon is the Vatican and this pope is its pimp.
They take money from George Soros to preach climate alarmism instead of preaching The New Testament.
That seems pretty clear, right now.
A Pope on Obama’s Rope ,well Strings
Or Pope Soros. Or Pope Sorsobama. All the same thing.
He’s not exactly a genius at tracking cause and effect relationships.
No, Mr. Poop! You are turning morals in this world on its head!
True, however, the enclave voted this fraud as Pope! What does that tell ya? Like our Congress idiots.
Yes, I know and find it all extremely shocking; not to mention disheartening.
Meanwhile, this fraud flies around the world on a chartered Alitalia jumbo jet.
He should set an example and fly coach on a regularly scheduled airline flight.
Genesis 22:17 shows that G-d promised Abraham that his descendants would be as numerous as the sand on the seashore. But with all due respect, this false prophet pope is now implying that G-d didnt make the earth big enough to fulfill his promise to Abraham.
And if G-d had made the earth bigger to comfortably accommodate more people, that means even more sand on the seashore!
This misguided pope, Ephesians 4:14 warning about people like him imo, is arguably wrongly rewriting Holy Bible prophecy.
And hell probably be replaced by one of the cardinals who helped to elect him.
This pope seeking to suck up to the lefty environmentalists who laugh at him.
Besides, he does not believe in the left/liberal sacrament of unlimited abortion.
When he became a pope he got down on his face feigning humility. Now he preaches the arrogance of unscientific global warming orthodoxy.
Holy father, if you want to preach religion, preach Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
The false religion of global warming is here today, gone tomorrow.
The Left always moves on to a new lie.
I know a lot of Catholics, and not one of them are happy with this clown.
This Pope is a DOPE! Sorry, God.
I’d like to give him a pop quiz. What week is it in Ordinary Time and what was today’s gospel reading?
I bet he does not know and could not celebrate mass this morning because he would have be unprepared for his homily.
Detention for you Papa. Go and read the good works of Pope Benedict in his defense of Catholic values, who you succeeded, and do what you were hired to do or go off backpacking in Europe or something like that. We don’t need you.
>> When he became a pope he got down on his face feigning humility.
And it was love at first sight for many. I remember those moments. How I have been betrayed.
