"Never have we so hurt and mistreated our common home as we have in the last two hundred years. Yet we are called to be instruments of God our Father, so that our planet might be what he desired when he created it and correspond with his plans for peace, beauty, and fullness."
(Pope Francis, Laudato Si')
