This campaign has received recognition from the Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference.
Bishop Martin Hayes, Laudato Si’ Coordinator for the Conference, said: “As Ireland has recently experienced record hot temperatures in recent weeks, undoubtedly due to our over reliance on fossils fuels to sustain our economies, I welcome the strong ethical voice of the ‘Europe, Be Faithful for our Common Home’ campaign statement, as the Republic of Ireland takes up the EU Presidency.”
The Laudato Si’ Movement has issued a call to the EU and its member states to introduce a permanent tax on all fossil fuel profits. You can sign the petition HERE
