Mexican Catholic Church Calls for Shared Responsibility in Caring for the Planet

The Mexican Catholic Church has called for the care of the planet to be assumed as a shared responsibility. In commemoration of the 800th anniversary of the death of St. Francis of Assisi, the church urged individuals, families, communities, businesses, and authorities to question their treatment of shared spaces and the people they share them with. This includes reviewing consumption habits, caring for common spaces, and promoting policies that protect the environment and improve the quality of life of all people, especially those most affected by environmental degradation.
