Covenant Partners

The Catholic Climate Covenant is widely embraced by the Catholic community. Fully twenty-seven national Catholic organizations support the Catholic Climate Covenant.  From the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to the National Federation of Priests Councils, the Covenant has tapped a desire for Catholic organizations and their constituents to understand and act on the threat of climate change from a Catholic perspective.  This perspective holds both care for creation and care for those must vulnerable to climate change and environmental threats: poor people at home and abroad.
