What's the Solution to Climate Change?

Deacon Pedro

Friday, October 14, 2016

Even if we disagree on the actual causes for climate change, we can agree that it’s taking place. But, do we agree of what we can do to help? What does the Church say? Is there a solution to climate change?

To offer a suggestion, on this new episode of the Weekly Edition of Perspectives, joining Deacon Pedro is Luke Stocking, of the Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace. His suggestion is probably not one you expect.

What do you think? Is there a solution to climate change? What do you think of the work Development and Peace is doing? What can you do to help with climate change? Tell us through Facebook or Twitter.

Last week I was imagining a world without Christmas. That would mean no Christmas music and no Christmas movies. But a world without Jesus would mean much more to our popular culture. One of my favourite Broadway musicals is Les Miz. I never read the novel, Les Miserables by Victor Hugo and wasn’t crazy about […]

I remember once, a Cuban friend who grew up in Cuba with no Christmas, telling me that she had never seen or heard of a Christmas tree before she left Cuba. But had Christ never been born, the implications would be much worse than not having Christmas trees. Just think of the music we’d be […]

Deacon-structing: When is the End of the World?

Deacon Pedro

Earlier this week I found myself listening to R.E.M.’s It’s the End of the World (although I much prefer the cover by Great Big Sea). It’s a good song and, while I’m not exactly sure what it’s about, I always think about it around this time of the year when all the Mass readings have […]
