Eleições e Ecologia Integral

In brief

The Diocese of Manaus released a reflection connecting upcoming elections to the principles of integral ecology.

The text cites Pope Benedict XVI's call to remove structural causes of global economic dysfunction and to correct growth models that fail to protect the environment. It also notes that Pope Francis, in his 2015 encyclical Laudato Si, teaches that caring for the environment is inseparable from social justice and human dignity.
