Hear the cry of the Earth

And the cry of the Poor

Pope Francis
is calling
for action.
It’s time to
respond.

Join us on a journey to pray
for creation, live simply, and
advocate for our common home. Sign up and we’ll support you along the way.

Pope Francis urges the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics and all people of good will to take urgent action against the injustice of climate change and the ecological crisis, to protect the poor and future generations. His encyclical letter Laudato Si’ is a compelling call to care for our common home, Earth, building on a long history of Catholic teaching. We are building a vibrant movement to respond to Pope Francis’ call.
