Publisher's Synopsis
It has been over eight years since Pope Francis, in Laudato Si' established care for creation as one of the central themes of Catholic social teaching. Yet that ecological consciousness has yet to take root en masse among the Catholic faithful. In this book, young Catholic women of the "green generation" reflect on saints--canonized and not--who connected their faith to concern for the earth. By connecting well-loved saints to environmental responsibility, the contributors hope to encourage the not-yet informed to become active, inviting younger generations to join the ecological movement, and taking on the responsibility from our elders, newly shouldering the ecological burden for ourselves.
