Help to Cool the earth

The effects of climate change are already a daily reality for many people, especially the poorest and most vulnerable, and for small-scale farmers around the world. Industrial agriculture contributes in part to climate change through:

- land conversion and deforestation

“Men and women are led to regard the environment as a marvel to be pondered and respected rather than a commodity for mere consumption. It is incumbent upon religious people to demonstrate that it is possible to find joy in living simply and modestly, gener­ously sharing one’s surplus with those suffer­ing from want.”

– Pope Benedict XVI, July 2008.
