Pope urges action on global warming in leaked document

Rome

An Italian magazine has published a leaked draft of the Pope's encyclical on climate change, which is due for release on Thursday.

In it, Pope Francis puts much of the blame for global warming on human activity and calls on all humans, not just Roman Catholics, to prevent the destruction of the ecosystem before the end of the century.
