“Human beings and nature must not be at the service of money. Let us say NO to an economy of exclusion and inequality, where money rules, rather than service. That economy kills. That economy excludes. That economy destroys Mother Earth.” —Pope Francis


Pope Francis’s historic encyclical Laudato Si’ was not merely the first encyclical to address ecology and care for creation; it was the manifesto for a new humanism, an outline of the values and principles allowing us to live together in our common home. Drawing not only on that encyclical but on Pope Francis’s extensive writings, speeches,and homilies, Care for Creationlays out hiscomprehensive vision of integral ecology. As Francis argues, concern for the earth is more than an ethical challenge—it calls for a profound conversion of values that involves anew understanding of our relation to God’s Creation, both the Earth and its creatures, as well as our fellow human beings.

  • The Degradation of Our Common Home

  • An Economy That Kills
