Bosco Earth Care News

Faiths 4 Climate Justice 2024

Join the INTERNATIONAL mobilization:
May 3-12, 2024


Pope Francis recently said that despite “the many negotiations and agreements, global emissions continue to increase. … the necessary transition towards clean energy sources such as wind and solar energy, and the abandonment of fossil fuels, is not progressing at the necessary speed. … We know that at this pace in just a few years we will surpass the maximum recommended limit of 1.5° C and shortly thereafter even reach 3° C, with a high risk of arriving at a critical point. Even if we do not reach this point of no return, it is certain that the consequences would be disastrous and precipitous measures would have to be taken, at enormous cost and with grave and intolerable economic and social effects.” (Laudate Deum, September 2023) 

There is now an international call for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
