In today’s edition of The Heartland Daily Podcast, H. Sterling Burnett, managing editor of Environment & Climate News speaks with E. Cal Beisner of the Cornwall Alliance. Beisner joins Burnett to discuss the nexus between ethics and environment issues and where he believes Pope Francis has gone wrong.

The Cornwall Alliance is “a coalition of theologians, pastors, ministry leaders, scientists, economists, policy experts, and committed laymen,” who are dedicated to promoting environmental stewardship and economic development built on Biblical principles.

Beisner discusses where he believes Pope Francis has gone wrong so far concerning the proper response to global warming, and his hope that the Pope will come to recognize the necessity of fossil fuel use as a means of raising the poor out of poverty.
