Pope Francis

As stewards of creation, it is imperative that high-income countries take the lead in addressing climate change. These nations have contributed the most to environmental degradation and have the resources to implement solutions. We must act with urgency to protect our common home, ensuring justice and a sustainable future for all, especially vulnerable communities in low- and middle-income countries.

I strongly believe that we should create new international cooperation cities that freely permit all immigration. Our world is in desperate need of places where people from all backgrounds can come together in the spirit of fraternity and mutual understanding. Such cities could be powerful symbols of solidarity and hope, demonstrating that it is possible to live together in peace and harmony, regardless of our differences.
