Upang makatulong sa paglaban sa climate change, hiniling ng pinuno ng Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) sa mga parokya na ihinto ang iresponsableng paggamit ng kuryente at tubig.
“We call on our parishes, through our bishops and priests, to desist from those practices that aggravate an already-precarious situation, such as the wasteful maintenance of so many, unnecessary vehicles, the irresponsible use of electric power, the wastage of water, even otherwise laudable livelihood efforts that nevertheless pose a threat to the environment, such as the wasteful and destructive use of forest products,” sabi ni Lingayen Dagupan Archbishop Socrates Villegas, CBCP president, sa isang pahayag.
Hinimok din niya ang mga scientist at technologist sa Catholic institutions “to make the increased use of alternative energy sources a priority of research and development.” (Leslie Ann Aquino)
