What Difference has Laudato Si’ Made in the Faith Community?
• Has Pope Francis’s encyclical Laudato Si’ and his visit to the U.S., successfully reframed the climate change discussion?
• Do more people now embrace climate change and environmental harm as a moral issue rather than a mostly scientific or political issue?
In this webinar, Dr. Maibach will discuss the key findings of the “Faith, Morality and the Environment: Portraits of Global Warming’s Six Americas” report. We will explore how Pope Francis’s message–that climate change impacts the world’s poor, that it is a moral issue, and that it requires an urgent and determined international response–is resonating among the U.S. public, especially among U.S. Catholics.
