Young Catholics from across the world are renewing their call for urgent climate action. The call was contained in a manifesto titled, “Ecological Conversion in Action”, which was issued at the end of the 3rdInternational Congress on the Care of Creation. Young people also committed themselves to “to live Laudato Si’ in the concreteness of our own daily lives, by developing an “ecological spirituality” (LS 216) and adopting sustainable lifestyles”. The manifesto warns that “time is running out and leaders from all sectors are showing very little ambition to embark in the rapid transformation that is needed to protect our precious common home and all its inhabitants.”
