All4TheGreen opened its fifth day, June 9, with the final High School Game, a student competition designed to stimulate climate literacy as a foundation for creating more conscious and responsible citizens.
Dear friends, brothers and sisters,
Distinguished organizers and participants of this important Interfaith Forum on Environmental Protection,
We are delighted to convey this message in order to assure you that we join you in prayer as you recognize the support of the world's religions in addressing climate change and affirming the protection of God's creation.
As religious leaders, all of us share an immense - and indeed a sacred vocation - responsibility to hold nations and corporations, but also communities and individuals accountable for the way we are treating our planet.
There can be no reason or excuse for indifference or inaction. Today, all of us are well aware of the intimate and inseparable connections of the ecological crisis to the global problems of poverty, migration and unrest.
How, then, can any nation decline the welfare of its citizens? Or how can any industry defend the exploitation of its consumers? And how can any person-of-good-will doubt the ethical implications of his or her lifestyle?
Dear friends, let us remind our leaders of the vital importance and urgency of implementing the Paris Agreement. Let us remind our nations that the earth is not a possession but a partner on our journey toward peace and prosperity.
Above all, let us remind everyone that God's creation is not a commodity but rather a gift that we are called to sustain and share with the most vulnerable and marginalized as well as to safeguard for the sake of our children.
May God bless you all in your deliberations and decisions.

After the successful opening day of the #All4TheGreen week, which concluded with the impressive concert of Ezio Bosso in Piazza Maggiore, with a clear message asking the audience for climate action underlying the importance of the environment, day two kicked off with a discussion between a network of Italian universities and G7 delegates for sustainable development.
Lamberto Mancini explained how the theme of sustainability is at the core of Touring Club Italia. Why? Thanks to the action taken by Touring Club Italia of carefully mapping the Italian territory and putting road signs across the country, they are attributing value to the Italian countryside and delivering an enriched and sustainable environment to future generations.
The interviews were rounded up with an engaging discussion between Gian Luca Galletti, Italian Environmental Minister, and the master’s students from IULM University of Milan about the role of Italy as a leading player in the action against climate change, not only as the host country for the G7 Environment but also serving as a country model for other international players. The Minister informed that Italy invested 11 billion euros over the past three years in renewable energy. “We truly believe that in today’s economy, profits go side by side with sustainable business solutions”.
