Join Dr. Mark Gallo, professor in the department of biology and co-chair of the Niagara University sustainability committee, and the Rev. Aidan R. Rooney, C.M., vice president for mission integration, as they discuss Pope Francis’ encyclical, “Laudato Si: On Care for our Common Home,” at noon Wednesday, April 22.

The conversation will be streamed live at http://www.niagara.edu/green-live, and will explore the Catholic perspective on sustainability issues. Live comments and questions will be addressed. Laudato Si and resources for learning can be found here: http://www.usccb.org/about/leadership/holy-see/francis/pope-francis-encyclical-laudato-si-on-environment.cfm.

Also, each day this week, a brief, prayerful reflection on the climate crisis will be posted on the sustainability Instagram feed (http://instagram.com/nugoesgreen) and mission integration’s new YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-mDUo43OyRNUKbt29uWDeg).
