Pope Francis’ landmark encyclical, Laudato Si’: On Care for Our Common Home, offers a “paradigm shift” in our understanding of the contemporary ecological crisis. More than just an “environmental” problem, this crisis is an existential threat to the well-being of our common household, both human and nonhuman. In a holistic way, Laudato Si’ lays bare the physical, ethical, and spiritual dimensions of this crisis. Join us in a dialogue about how the Catholic Church now calls us to respond through an integral approach, recognizing that everything is interconnected. Im
