Pope Francis Blasts Global Warming Skeptics In Leaked Draft of Encyclical, Blames Climate Change On Evil Rich People And Calls For Wealth Redistribution…

He seems to skew just a tad to the left.
Via WaPo:
A draft of a major environmental document by Pope Francis says “the bulk of global warming” is caused by human activity and calls on people — especially the world’s rich — to take steps to mitigate the damage by reducing consumption and reliance on fossil fuels.
In words likely to anger some of his conservative critics, the pope backs the science of climate change, saying “plenty of scientific studies point out that the last decades of global warming have been mostly caused by the great concentration of greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen oxide and others) especially generated by human action.”
“The poor and the Earth are shouting,” reads the draft of the encyclical, the first of its kind dedicated to the environment. The Washington Post translated portions of the draft.
The encyclical release had been planned for Thursday and was highly anticipated, given Francis’s enormous popularity and what many see as his potential to significantly affect policy in such areas as energy use and economic globalization. […]
The draft reveals Francis as part policy wonk, part lyricist, calling explicitly in places for more investment in renewable energy and in others for evening the “ecological debt” between the Northern and Southern hemispheres, wealthy and poor countries.
“Enlighten the masters of power and money so that they should not fall prey to the sin of indifference, so that they should love the common good, support the weak, and care about this world that we inhabit,” the draft reads.

Like all other leaders, the Pope gets his opinions and facts from his advisors.

This topic sounds surprised; Tall part of hat is b/c most candidates suffer head trauma earlier in life.
I'm also an atheist, and I've got to say, "Right on, Pope! Keep standing up for the only planet we have."
