Pope Francis makes Chicago Catholics see green

The Chicago Tribune

Faith in Place, which started as a project by CNT, was recently featured in the Chicago Tribune: Answering a plea from Pope Francis to protect the planet, Chicagoans — Catholics and non-Catholics alike — have pledged to collect rainfall, conserve tap water, recycle their cans and bottles, and switch off the lights when they leave a room. Rev. Brian Sauder, a Mennonite minister who serves as executive director of an interfaith nonprofit called Faith in Place, commended the pope for framing the environmental movement in a moral context that could pierce the partisan divide.
