I planned to use the tree photo to teach farmers and schoolchildren to care for the land through planting and caring for trees. Luckily for me, the chief of police was raised a Catholic, and was willing to listen as I explained that all people, especially Christians who were raised to know that God created the heavens and earth, must understand that all God’s creation is good (Gen.1). Many Maryknoll missioners like me see the impact of environmental injustices and climate change on the poor and less fortunate people we serve.
