Progressive Catholics are aghast that a “shockingly low” number of U.S. Catholics support Pope Francis’s radical take on global warming.
The poll in question that so unnerved Schneck and his fellow social justice warriors refers to a September 28 article by the Pew Research Center, which found that a minority of U.S. Catholics subscribe to the theory that the earth is warming “mostly due to human activity.”
“The climate changes of our time have multiplied extreme atmospheric events, with dramatic consequences for civilian populations,” the pontiff said. “The impact is catastrophic for people who lose their homes due to flooding of waterways, tornadoes and hydrogeological disruptions.” This past summer, the pope said it is time for world leaders to “listen to science and institute a rapid and equitable transition to end the era of fossil fuel.”
Moreover, he contended, “predatory industries are depleting and polluting our freshwater sources through extreme practices such as fracking for oil and gas extraction, unchecked mega-mining projects, and intensive animal farming.”
