1)    The spiritual perspective is now part of the discussion on the environment.

2)    The poor are disproportionately affected by climate change: whose worse impacts are felt by; not only the result of the power of the rich to make decisions and not take the poor into account, but also the poor does not have enough financial resources that adapt them to the climate change; Additionally, the natural resources of those poorer countries “fuel” the development of the richer countries “at the cost of their own present and future”

3)    Less is more.

4)    Catholic social teaching now includes teaching on the environment: caring for the environement is doing the common good, eg: nucluear war etc

5)    Discussions about ecology can be grounded in the Bible and church tradition: Jesus himself appreciated the natural world, as is evident in the Gospel passages in which he praises creation. The insights of the saints are also recalled, most especially St. Francis of Assisi, the spiritual lodestar of the document. In addition to helping nonbelievers understand the Scripture and the church’s traditions, he explicitly tries to inspire believers to care for nature and the environment.

6)    Everything is connected—including the economy: "Profit,” he says, “cannot be the sole criterion” of our decisions. “We are part of nature, included in it, and thus in constant interaction with it” (No. 139). But our decisions, particularly about production and consumption, have an inevitable effect on the environment

7)    Scientific research on the environment is to be praised and used.

8)    Widespread indifference and selfishness worsen environmental problems.

9)    Global dialogue and solidarity are needed.

10)    A change of heart is required

Everything is Connected: Care for our Common Home

Environmental issues are not simply about our impact on the planet, they are also issues of human dignity, flourishing and the common good.

impact on people living in poverty.

The causes of these issues are connected to greed and lack of concern for humanity just as much as they are connected to a lack of care for the natural environment. Any attempts to mitigate the damage caused by our use of the world's resources should be motivated by solidarity with all who we share this planet with, as well as those who will come after us.
