Pope Francis is calling on the world to redefine the 鈥渘otion of progress鈥� and embrace an all-out effort to combat climate change, according to a Globe and Mail article. In a encyclical, the Pope endorsed the scientific consensus that humankind is causing a dramatic shift in the world鈥檚 climate which will have the greatest impact on the world鈥檚 poor. ()

鈥淔rancis isn't content merely to repeat the tropes of the environmentalists, though many of those tropes are present. Rather he goes to the heart of the human condition that underlies both our environmental problems and the problem of poverty.聽 This encyclical will both please and provoke the environmentalist elites. And there's plenty in it for the ordinary person to ponder, too, even if he or she is somewhat skeptical of popular claims about global warming. Laudato si displays Pope Francis' penchant for combining encouragement with pointed rebukes.鈥�
