Pope Advisor Has Harsh Words for Climate Deniers | National Geographic


the Pontifical Academy of Sciences like
the entire world scientific community
considers that there’s no debate about
climate change or the fact that human
beings how about the major role in it
those who try to spread misinformation
about climate change are simply wrong
and are doing that for some other aim
like all members of the Pontifical
Academy of Sciences I’ve had the chance
to meet Pope Francis briefly and found
him to be just as affable and charming
and charismatic as he seems to be and as
he’s widely considered justifiably Pope
Francis is a great communicator and I
think it comes from his background in
Argentina where he consistently dealt
with the problems of the poor and came
face-to-face with the kinds of issues
that are destroying the world at the
present time among the important
elements of the encyclical that I think
will surprise people or may interest
them if they haven’t thought about it
are the acceptance of scientific
findings as such many people distort or
ignore them for one reason or another
and this encyclical really lays the
foundation for accepting them and then
thinking about what to do about it
together not only is the living world
essential to our survival in terms of
safeguarding our soils and water and
climate worldwide but if we destroy it
simply what simply mindlessly because of
short-term gain of one kind or another
personal corporate national will face a
very uncertain future in which what we
consider to be civilization will be
unlikely to last more than 30 or 60
years simply because things are getting
to be too difficult that’s what Pope
Francis has brought out so well in the
encyclical just issued
