About the Book

Why care about the environment? It's a question people are asking and answering with greater frequency--and urgency--than ever before. And although many Americans remain ambivalent about our responsibility toward the earth, Pope Francis is clear: we must care about the environment, because all creation is connected. He says this most clearly and powerfully in his 2015 encyclical Laudato si': On Care for Our Common Home. Shortly after the pope released his encyclical, the Catholic Climate Covenant, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, and the Institute for Policy Research & Catholic Studies at The Catholic University of America held a conference to unpack and explore Laudato si'. All Creation Is Connected: Voices in Response to Pope Francis's Encyclical on Ecology is a collection of essays born of that conference. Supplemented with review and discussion questions, and suggestions for further study, All Creation Is Connected explores an array of topics--from the background and reception of the encyclical to the key concepts that frame and animate it. Why care about the environment? All Creation Is Connected explores that critical question and the pope's timely response. This collection will catalyze conversation and spur necessary action for years to come.

Review :
I strongly endorse All Creation Is Connected: Voices in Response to Pope Francis's Encyclical on Ecology. The essays are an excellent companion to deepen understanding of the critical theological, social, and ecological insights and claims woven throughout Laudato si'. The early chapters show both the continuity and new ground that Laudato si' makes with earlier Catholic social teaching. The later essays, on Pope Francis's critical contribution of the themes "Integral Ecology" and "Ecological Conversion," are especially compelling. The connections several authors make to Leonardo Boff's liberation theology and Teilhard de Chardin's and Thomas Berry's cosmological theologies ground Laudato si' in important contemporary theological conversations. Especially important for theologians is Richard Miller's stellar chapter, "The Cry of the Earth: The Scientific Background" . . . a clear and thorough discussion of the implications of breaching "planetary boundaries" through escalating climate change brought about by human activities--the central problem addressed in Laudato si'. This book will generate and ground critical conversations and active responses to Pope Francis's call for a global ecological conversion. --Daniel T. Spencer University of Montana
