Mottling In Three Year Old
No. 24 - We must change our lifestyle - n ° 23
Naples, 7/11/2010
TO CANCUN
"CHANGE O 'SYSTEM'
missing a few weeks at the World Summit on the climate meeting in Cancun, Mexico . From November 29 to December 10, governments of 200 countries will face the biggest disaster in history:
climate change . This summit takes place one year second, to Copenhagen, concluded that it was no binding agreement, but only with a 'declaration' of intent. After the failure of Copenhagen, the road is now all uphill . Humanity can not fail again in Cancun: at stake is the future of the planet. Global warming is the result of an economic-financial system which has the sole purpose of unlimited growth. "And if the Great Depression now in place," writes Tom Friedman in The New York Times-we were to say that the model of unlimited growth of the last 50 years is not sustainable economically and environmentally? It 's the year 2008 where we bumped into the wall to which Mother Nature and the market told us: Just " This is not just a political-economic or ecological, but also an enormous challenge to all religions, all churches. At stake is the future of the planet, of life in all its forms. E 'then a theological problem because God is the God of life, passionate about life. God has spent four billion six hundred million years to give us this beautiful planet. A believer who worships the God of life can only be a passionate defender of life on the planet. In fact, the current ecological crisis implies a more profound spiritual crisis. "We believe that the close link between economic crisis and ecological crisis is the expression of a wider crisis in ethics, moral and spiritual-state of the Reformed Churches of Asia in their Document Earth Sister, Brother Kangaroo. And 'in fact with absolute faith in the' free market ', with the worship of wealth and material goods, with the' gospel 'of consumerism and unlimited growth, that humans have taken advantage of their brothers and sisters and ransacked their only home. "And with great Asian wisdom, those churches we suggest: " To overcome this crisis requires nothing more than a radical spiritual renewal. From our Christian faith, we reaffirm that this transformation must be founded upon the biblical God's preferential option for the marginalized (justice) and for the sanctity of life (sustainability). 'E' as stated by the director of the ecumenical SOJOURNES magazine, Jim Wallis in a recent editorial: "At the theological level we are witnessing a devastating dispossession of land of God We should be the guardians of the Gulf of Mexico, tropical forests , beaches ... and instead we see the destruction of aggregates these wonders. Certainly for the lies, irresponsibility public and private, but fundamental to our belief that we 'ethical' economic growth unlimited power of fossil energy, a growth that is unsustainable. "That's why we must be as believers in this enormous challenge to life on the planet. Being there with all our brothers and sisters do not believe. E 'lives at stake. E 'for us an ethical, moral and theological: the passionate life that God sent Jesus because we have life and life abundantly (John 10:10). is not just climate change, but a global economic and financial systems that kill for hunger (a billion hungry people, according to FAO), kill for war (in millions of deaths!) And kills the planet. Not only must we change the climate, but changing a system of death.
So I ask all associations, parishes and ecclesial movements, to study these issues in view of Cancun and a commitment to change O 'system. But above all we must combine all these energies with those who do not believe, but are committed. We must join forces to save the planet, to save his life. We must together put pressure on our MPs and ministers who do not want to address these issues. 'S time to stop talking to GDP and growth, and instead start thinking about alternative economies that allow everyone, including the planet, to live. We have to be present in Cancun with the Italian Network for Environmental and Social Justice (Rigas), with all the basic movements and indigenous America Latin America, with all the environmental movements in Africa and Asia to tell everyone that the time of environmental justice is now. We must rejoin with the movements of the South (the cry of the poor) to respond with the cry of the earth. For this we make our own the following requests made by the World Conference of the Peoples of the Mother Earth, held in Cochabamba (Bolivia) 20 to 22 April 2010:
- to defend the Kyoto Protocol that sets a single goal for all: reducing emissions greenhouse gases and require the U.S. to ratify it;
-limit temperature increase to 1 ° entigrado;
- 50% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990, this for the second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol (2013-2017); oppose market-carbon dioxide (which prohibit the rich countries from poor countries buy their share of clean air),-require that rich countries should pay for climate debt to impoverished countries (those that are paying more climate change),-insist that rich countries invest in climate change what we now spend on weapons (in 2009 have invested 1.54 trillion U.S. dollars in arms!)
-find, by the rich countries, $ 100 billion per year to support mitigation and adaptation policies;-push for a minimal fee (0.05%) on financial transactions. This would allow a revenue of hundreds of billions each year on an international scale, make-pressure to give off a radical transformation of agribusiness.
These are also our fundamental demands that we make to our administrators, politicians, parliamentarians, governments, the European Union it is required to play a greater role in the negotiations in Cancun between rich and poor countries. In the hope, too, come early to a Universal Declaration of Human Rights of Mother Earth.
E 'a joint effort between this and lay believers, between religious groups and grassroots movements to save Mother Earth. "The most significant division today among humans is not based on nationality or ethnicity, not on social class or religious affiliation-wrote the theologian American ecologist p.Thomas Berry-but the division is rather between those who massacre the Earth and those who are committed to preserving the Earth in all its glory. " It 's a scream that this is a tormented land, Campania, which has become the tip of the iceberg of what will happen to our Mother Earth if we do not reverse march. Let us unite in one great movement to save Mother Earth .
We must do it: the planet is at stake, it is dance of life.

a.3 's time to change a. 3 No. 22
E 'growing need for a CHANGE!
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1305698256379&ref=mf
'Time to change "Bossi-Fini law" . In particular, we can not accept the criminalization of those who do not have permission to stay, because for leggge, if they lose their job, automatically lose their permit and then "become criminals." This is deeply unfair and impossible situation GENERATE DAILY TO MANAGE WITH DEEP FOR BAD DEBTS IMMIGRANTS, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE IN THIS TIME OF CRISIS lose their jobs. Can not continue like this!
We also remember today, the day of the dead, all those who tragically died at sea trying to reach Europe to escape to the beaches teribili situations of their countries. We also remember the words of the Pope on behalf of the Catholic Church said the basic human right to 'emigration.
I the Pope says: "The church recognizes that every person the right to emigrate in search of better living conditions, to welcome them and give them hospitality is a dutiful gesture of solidarity ".
And again: "in the eyes of the Church men are all part of a 'one human family. They have the same aspirations, equal rights and goals, because they are all children of God. "
We believe that clear guidance for all the world to create a new species in our society. For this right, and because of the immigration situation in the world will inevitably continue. We also know that, until proven otherwise, the Italian families are in a very difficult situation. Simply stated, according to statistics, half of Italian households did not have children and other media in a and a half per family. This leads to the decrease of the Italian population that is gradually replaced with the families of immigrants.
Hence the need to know how to interact with us and "others" in order to live together in peace as members of the same people in place that we are all children of one Father.
The ACSE in his meetings every Saturday, from 16 to 17, followed by a Mass, is developing these issues in order to be a center for the development of fraternal coexistence between peoples, in Rome and Italy.
For this, the 'ACSE attended last meeting scheduled October 30 in the building of the Province of Rome where they addressed a number of skilled lecturers of the subject 50 years of independence of 17 African countries. We need to know between peoples in order to create friendship and cooperation between us.
