Climate change and environmental degradation are manifestations of our turning away from God. The effects of this willful separation from God resonate across our collective lives: All areas of justice are either worsened or made better depending on the health of the planet.

People living in poverty are plunged further into poverty by the deteriorating condition of the planet.
