Climate change and the our destruction of the planet is no longer just a few scientists making claims. We all know their is a problem. When respected world leaders, religious or otherwise are making statements the issue has gone mainstream.
Yes there are still a few people denying the problem, but many more are calling for action. It is am emergency and we need to treat it as such.
By speaking out the Pope and the Patriarch have made this a moral/ethical issue. It always was, but now peopke can't ignore it and say it is not their problem. The planet and how we treat it is everyone's problem and it is everyone's ethical/moral obligation.
I hope people listen.
