A network of Roman Catholics are preparing for Pope Francis releasing his encyclical, a high-level teaching document, on the environment and climate change.

We are asking ourselves, “What would be the best way for us to support the faith community in getting this out and using it as a call to action?” –Patrick Carolan, executive director of Franciscan Action Network

The encyclical will be released by the end of June to provide time for its teachings to be read and absorbed before the talks in Paris.
