It is a helpful book for the field of environmental ethics, especially if you are interested in what the Church teaches.In a world of rapid change, it is good to stop at times in order to look back, not to look back to see the path followed but rather to discover the wealth of that past which so often we did not have time to savor in our haste to move on. This book intends to help us to reflect on this responsibility.

The book is therefore an invitation to go further and, above all, to reflect carefully on the teachings of the Catholic Church concerning the environment. These teachings call for radical change: for a conversion of the heart and mind so that all may have life, life in abundance. This implies living in harmony with all of creation. When this is so, the world will truly be at peace and all of creation will reflect the beauty of the Creator.
