Pope Francis: Climate change turning Earth into desert, garbage
Pope Francis warning about climate change said, “There is a real danger that we will leave future generations only rubble, deserts and refuse.”

Pope Francis is urging governments to make good on their commitments to curb climate change, warning that continued unsustainable development and rampant consumption threaten to turn the Earth into a vast pile of “rubble, deserts and refuse.”
Francis made the appeal Friday at a Vatican conference marking the third anniversary of his landmark environmental encyclical “Praise Be.” The document, meant to spur action at the 2015 Paris climate conference, called for a paradigm change in humanity’s relationship with Mother Nature.
