"It has now become clear that the climate change presently taking place stems from the
overheating of the planet, caused chiefly by the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere
due to human activity, which in recent decades has proved unsustainable for the ecosystem. The

made the environment the object of unbridled exploitation."
-Pope Francis
