| “Let us all make every effort possible, each from where God has placed us, to rein in our reckless over-consumption, so that the harmonious workings of this planet, our common home, may be restored and that we and our children may enjoy in peace all the good things which God has created and offers to all.” |
| Bartholomew, Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople,
Encyclical for Day of the Protection of Natural Environment,
1 September 2006 |
