“Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.” (Mt 25:40). The Bible tells us that we are our sisters and brothers’ keeper, and guardians of Creation entrusted to us. Our responsibility extends to the threatened commons—vegetation, animals, and natural elements. We are called “to listen to the cry of the earth and of people who are poor, examining their behavior and pledging meaningful sacrifices for the sake of the earth which God has given us.” [09/01/21 Joint Message for the Protection of Creation]
