On April 29, 2017, just before the 100th day of the Trump administration, Catholics will join the wider climate movement for a massive family-friendly march in the streets of Washington, D.C. and across the country. We will “pray with our feet” and stand up for all that we love, urging Congress and the Trump administration to take bold action against the injustice of the climate crisis.

April 28th is President Trump’s 100th day in office. April 28th also marks the government budget deadline and possible government shutdown.

There is much happening at that time.

I am not saying these people are co opting religious groups (in this case Catholic) to move their agenda . . .

Like this person did (here)

Or this person (here).

But I would like to know . . . Who is financing this?

Anybody know?

Thanks in advance.

God bless.

Climate change is the opiate of the masses.

I’d join an environmental group prayer though. So many places are polluted.

Ultimately this is my main beef with people who oppose climate change. Doesn’t really matter if it’s a load of ****, fighting climate change amounts to reducing pollution and God didn’t give us this planet to destroy it and harm the health of the general population just to make a buck.

Ha! Didn’t realise that relatively mild word was censored on this site…
 
Would you also march to end abortion? Taking care of our planet is important but so is taking care of the unborn.

Definitely!

What about a March against communism? A march against euthanasia?

We should take care of the earth, but a lot of environmentalists are population control nuts.

Sadly, there are self-proclaimed Catholics who say that the doctrine of Climate Change takes precedence over the abortion bloodbath because more people will die from climate change than from abortion.
So goes their…reasoning. 🤷

Which Pope Francis has refuted plainly.

That is true, but look around today, more trucks and cars then ever before on the roads, more companies and people having stuff made in huge chinese factories, and everyone buying it up every chance they get. LOL

Cant really be fighting to stop climate change and then take part in destroying the earth at the same time.

Eventually the world will remember our times as the ones who sold out the planet to make a quick buck, whether its by our fossil fuel driven cars/ trucks or the many factories constantly cranking out cheap stuff to fill the shelves.

The main problem is greed, its cheap to have lots of stuff made in foreign factories, gas and diesel are relatively cheap way to move a vehicle but its also a fuel that can be metered to the public, so its no wonder oil company profits are in the billions (in other words…selling out the planet to make a buck). They all claim they are trying to develop hybrids and other types of cars to lessen demand for oil, but why would they do that when it would drastically reduce their profits. I think they will continue to ‘rape’ the planet until there is nothing left and then roll around in all their cash as the rest of the world struggles.

I know many disagree, but I find it almost comical that fossil fuels are STILL the main fuel for our vehicles, it is 2017 folks!! Why are more people not surprised there have not been any alternatives suggested in all these years?? Where are all the great inventors of our time, the Einsteins, the Teslas, etc? LOL

Thanks for that!
Can you give us some more info? i wasn’t aware that Pope Francis had said that, but it’s good news, especially regarding one or two mistaken ideas here. 🤷
 
Climate change, immigration, monetary concerns, et al. The Idol of the secularized Church.
 
Those who believe in manmade global warming are entitled to their belief about it. But they shouldn’t represent that it’s somehow a teaching of the Catholic Church, particularly when its entire premise is the use of fossil fuels (and in the First World) and nothing else.

There is plenty of evidence that to the extent there is global warming and even increased CO2 in the atmosphere, it’s due to gross mismanagement of the land. Desertification proceeds apace due to mismanagement, and the MMGW folks refuse to even consider it as a hazard to mankind.

There is plenty of research on the subject of increasing carbon sequestration through proper land management, but nobody but farmers and ranchers pay any attention to it. Why do they pay attention? Because it improves fertility, decreases erosion, improves drought-resistance, water retention, and is economically beneficial.

But the left media and those who follow its dictates do not care at all. How did it ever come to a point where there is no “Catholic movement” to save the land itself, but there is a purported one to make your utility bills “skyrocket”?

And I’ll add that the CO2 in the atmosphere is far nearer its all time minimum than it is to the maximum. Right now, at about 380 ppm, we’re about 200 ppm above the level at which all plant life dies for lack of CO2. The world came within 100 ppm of that deadly level during the Little Ice Age, and famine stalked the world. We’re now still recovering from that.

Perhaps this is a rhetorical comment.
St. Mother Teresa would’ve said, “They’ve all been aborted.”
Code: 
The Great Barrier Reef is dying, which is a harbor for many species of fish, which are over-harvested. To me, this is not getting as much attention as AGW and is a more dire problem.

Blessed Lent,
