Pope Francis Is Right: We Can’t Make Future Generations Solve Climate Change - NationofChangeEnvironmental activists carry a banner as they march towards a Roman Catholic church to coincide with Pope Francis' encyclical on climate change Thursday, June 18, 2015 in Manila, Philippines. In a high-level, 190-page document released Thursday, Francis describes ongoing human damage to nature as "one small sign of the ethical, cultural and spiritual crisis of modernity." The solution, he says, will require self-sacrifice and a "bold cultural revolution" worldwide. (AP Photo/Bullit Marquez)
