On June 18 the new encyclical from Pope Francis was released. Laudato Si which literally means “Be praised.” In this encyclical Pope Francis addresses the care of our common home “the Earth.” He talks about the risks we need to take to save our human race and our planet.

He also asks a main question to all of us: What kind of a world do we want to leave to those who come after us, to children who are growing up?
