[:mt]Messaġġ ta’ Papa Franġisku lil dawk li ħadu sehem fil-konferenza internazzjonali organizzata minn EcoOne, l-inizjattiva ekoloġika tal-Moviment tal-Fokolari.
Din il-konferenza li saret onlajn mit-23 sal-25 ta’ Ottubru 2020 minn Castel Gandolfo, Ruma kienet attività biex tfakkar il-ħames anniversarju tal-Enċiklika Laudato si.
“ (…) Nixtieq nesprimi l-gratitudni tiegħi lejn EcoOne, l-inizjattiva ekoloġika tal-Moviment tal-Fokolari u lil dawk li jirrapreżentaw id-dikasteru għall-Promozzjoni Sħiħa tal-Iżvilupp Uman u lill-Moviment Dinji Kattoliku Dwar il-Klima, li kkolaboraw biex setgħet issir din il-konferenza. Din l-laqgħa tagħkom dwar: “Toroq ġodda lejn ekoloġija integrali: ħames snin wara l-Laudato si ‘ turi rabta bejn l-umanità u l-għożża tad-dinja tagħna aspetti differenti: etiku, xjentifiku, soċjali u teoloġiku.
Filwaqt li nfakkar f’kemm Chiara Lubich kienet konvinta li d-dinja ġġorr fiha kariżma ta’ unità, nawgura li din il-perspettiva tagħha tiggwida l-ħidma tagħkom u tagħrfu li “kollox hu marbut flimkien” u li “t-tħassib għall-ambjent irid jimxi id f’id ma’ mħabba sinċiera għall-bnedmin u impenn kostanti dwar il-problemi tas-soċjetà” “( Laudato si ‘ , 91).
Fost dawn il-problemi jinħass il-bżonn urġenti ta’ mod soċjo-ekonomiku ġdid u aktar inklussiv, li juri l-verità li aħna “umanita waħda, magħmulin mill-istess ġisem, ulied ta’ l-istess art li tilqagħna fiha lkoll”( Ikoll Aħwa , 8). Din is-solidarjeta ta’ bejnietna u mad-dinja ta’ madwarna titlob rieda soda biex tiżviluppa u timplimenta miżuri konkreti, li jippromwovu id-dinjita tal-bnedmin kollha fir-relazzonijiet tagħhom umani, fil-familja u fix-xogħol, filwaqt li jissieltu kontra strutturi li jikkawżaw il-faqar u jaħdmu biex iħarsu l-ambjent naturali.
L-iżvilupp ta’ ekoloġija integrali jeħtieġ konverżjoni interjuri profonda kemm fuq livell personli kif ukoll fuq livell komunitarju. Filwaqt li teżaminaw l-isfidi li rridu naffrontaw illum, li jinkludu t-tibdil fil-klima, il-ħtieġa ta’ żvilupp sostenibbli u s-sehem tar-reliġjon fil-kriżi ambjentali, huwa essenzjali li wieħed iwarrab għal kollox il-loġika tal-isfruttament u l-egoiżmu u jippromwovi stil ta’ ħajja sobreja, sempliċi u umli (ara Laudato si ‘ , 222-224).
Nittama li l-ħidma tgħin sabiex fil-qalb ta’ ħutna tissaħħaħ dik ir-responsabbilta’ li għandu jkollna lejn xulxin, bħala wlied Alla u biex ikun hemm impenn imġedded ħalli nieħdu ħsieb il-ħolqien, li huwa rigal tiegħu.
Għeżież ħbieb, mill-ġdid nirringrazzjakom tar-riċerka tagħkom u tal-isforz kollaborattiv biex tfittxu toroq ġodda li jwasslu għal ekoloġija integral għall-ġid komuni tal-familja umana u tad-dinja. Filwaqt li nesprimi l-awguri tiegħi u talb għall-ħidma tagħkom waqt din il-laqgħa, nitlob li fuqkom, fuq il-familji u l-kollaboraturi tagħkom ikun hemm il-barka t’Alla, għajn ta’ għerf, qawwa u sliem. U nitlobkom, jekk jogħġobkom tiftakru fija fit-talb tagħkom.”

[:en]In a message to members of the Focolare Movement at a conference on Integral Ecology, Pope Francis says the common good of the human family and the created world demands urgent action against poverty and injustice.
Pope Francis on Friday told participants in an online conference that we live in a time in which there is the urgent need for a new and more inclusive socio-economic paradigm that reflects the truth that we are “a single human family.”
His words came in a message to an international on-line Meeting, an event that is part of the year-long observance of the 5th anniversary of the Encyclical Letter Laudato si’.
“New ways towards Integral Ecology”
The Meeting, entitled “New ways towards Integral Ecology” was organized by “EcoOne”, the ecological initiative of the Focolare Movement in collaboration with the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development and the Global Catholic Climate Movement.
He noted that the meeting addresses “a relational vision of humanity and care for our world from a variety of perspectives: ethical, scientific, social and theological,” and said he trusts that the Focolare Movement will be able to do much to promote awareness for the issue.
Charism of unity
The Pope recalled the conviction of Chiara Lubich, the foundress of the Movement, according to whom “the created world bears within itself a charism of unity.”
May her perspective, he said, “guide your work in the recognition that “everything is connected” and that “concern for the environment needs to be joined to sincere love for our fellow human beings and an unwavering commitment to resolving the problems of society” (Laudato si’, 91).
One human family
The Pope highlighted the need, today, to raise awareness that we are a “single human family, fellow travellers sharing the same flesh, children of the same earth which is our common home” (Fratelli tutti, 8).
He said that this solidarity demands “a firm willingness to develop and implement practical measures that foster the dignity of all persons in their human, family and work relationships, while at the same time combating the structural causes of poverty and working to protect the natural environment.”
The need for conversion
The Pope concluded calling for a profound interior conversion, both on a personal and communal level.
As we examine the great challenges of our time he said, including the contribution religion can make to the environmental crisis, “it is essential to break with the logic of exploitation and selfishness and to promote the practice of a sober, simple and humble lifestyle (see Laudato si’, 222-224).
