Synopsis

Pope Franciss historic encyclical Laudato Si was not merely the first encyclical to address ecology and care for creation; it was the manifesto for a new humanism, an outline of the values and principles allowing us to live together in our common home. Drawing not only on that encyclical but on Pope Franciss extensive writings, speeches, and homilies, Care for Creation lays out his comprehensive vision of integral ecology. As Francis argues, concern for the earth is more than an ethical challenge it calls for a profound conversion of values that involves a new understanding of our relation to Gods Creation, both the Earth and its creatures, as well as our fellow human beings. Chapters include: ? The Degradation of Our Common Home ? An Economy That Kills ? The Globalisation of Indifference ? Redefining Progress ? The Recovery of the Common Good ? Toward a Culture of Integral Ecology ? The Spiritual Dimension of Living|Pope Franciss historic encyclical Laudato Si was not merely the first encyclical to address ecology and care for creation; it was the manifesto for a new humanism, an outline of the values and principles allowing us to live together in our common home.
