22 May 2021 ROME — Pope Francis has urged the nations of the world to work to find common solutions to the most urgent problems facing humanity–notably, migration and climate change. The international community must “confront such pressing global issues as migration and climate change, as well as the humanitarian crises that they often bring in their wake,” the pontiff told new ambassadors accredited to the Holy See in an address in the Vatican Friday. “I think too of the economic debt that burdens many countries struggling to survive and the ‘ecological debt’ that we owe to nature itself, as well as to peoples and countries affected by human-induced ecological degradation and loss of biodiversity,” the pope added.
