Laudato Si’ is a 2015 encyclical written by Pope Francis that focuses on care for creation and the moral responsibility humans have toward the environment. Addressed to all people, not just Catholics, the document highlights the interconnectedness of ecological, social, and economic issues, emphasizing that environmental degradation disproportionately affects the poor and vulnerable. Pope Francis calls for an “integral ecology,” which recognizes that caring for the Earth is inseparable from caring for human dignity, justice, and the common good. Through a blend of theology, science, and social reflection, Laudato Si’ urges individuals, communities, and governments to rethink consumption, protect natural resources, and adopt lifestyles rooted in gratitude, responsibility, and respect for God’s creation.
