                                    Synopsis: Este es el texto completo de Laudato Si’, la carta encíclica histórica del Papa Francisco que, como la revista Time ha comentado, ha “conmovido a la comunidad internacional”.
En la Carta encíclica sobre el cambio climático y la desigualdad, el celebrado Papa exhorta al mundo a que combata la degradación ambiental del medio ambiente y su impacto sobre los pobres. En una llamada inspiradora que no está sólo dirigida a lectores católicos, sino también a una audiencia mucho más amplia, el Papa cita una aplastante evidencia científica, que no deja dudas sobre la existencia del cambio climático y su origen en un nivel histórico de distribución desigual de la riqueza.
En breve, como el New York Times lo calificó, es “un llamado urgente a la acción … para convencer a seguidores en todo el mundo de que modifiquen su conducta, con la esperanza de proteger a un planeta frágil.”
The complete text of Laudato Si’, the landmark encyclical letter from Pope Francis that, as Time magazine reported, “rocked the international community”
In the Encyclical on Climate Change and Inequality,   the beloved Pope exhorts the world to combat environmental degradation   and its impact on the poor. In a stirring, clarion call that is not   merely aimed at Catholic readers but rather at a wide, lay audience, the   Pope cites the overwhelming scientific evidence of climate change, and   does not hesitate to detail how it is the result of a historic level  of  unequal distribution of wealth.
It is, in short, as the New York Times labeled   it, “An urgent call to action . . . intended to persuade   followers around the world to change their behavior, in hopes of  protecting  a fragile planet.”
