The Laudato Si’ Action Platform is a unique collaboration
between the Vatican, an international coalition of Catholic organizations, and
“all men and women of good will.” (LS 3) Taking a truly ground-up approach, it
is rooted in the strengths and realities of communities around the world,
empowering all to take “decisive action, here and now” as we journey towards a
better future together. (LS 161)
Action is urgently needed. Our Creator called the human
family to be the steward of creation, but we have neglected that call. Our
hotter, dirtier, deader planet is driving up the risk of suffering. The most
vulnerable suffer above all.
At this kairos moment, we are responding to the call for
healing in our relationships with God, our neighbors, and the Earth itself.
Through the Laudato Si’ Action Platform, we are walking the “path to renewal”
together (LS 202).
