Cardinal Claudio Gugerotti: World currently faces colossal catastrophes
Baku, November 5, AZERTAC
“The world is currently facing colossal catastrophes. Our religious beliefs are of great power. We do not believe in relativity and individuality. Our actions should be based on building our future,” said Cardinal Claudio Gugerotti, Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery for the Eastern Churches, as he addressed the Global Baku Summit of Religious Leaders under the slogan “World Religions for a Green Planet” within the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29).
Emphasizing the importance of the event, Cardinal Claudio Gugerotti commended the fact that the religious leaders, representatives of various organizations and religions convened to discuss a crucial issue. He said this event is focused on protecting our planet.
"A person should live a decent life. The individual is the fruit of love of the earth. The individual is not a combination of simple chemical elements, but an embodiment of love. We cannot afford to wait, the danger is approaching. What happens to us depends on how we honor our collective commitments. We must protect our humanity, otherwise wars will escalate, driving us towards destruction," he added.
