United Nations creates World Water Day to address water crisis | National Catholic Reporter
We can all do without many things, but all earthlings need water to survive. Fresh water is limited. What can families do to protect fresh water? Nations?

BLESSINGS ON POPE FRANCIS
Blessings on Jorge Mario Bergoglio, now Pope Francis, who has a heart for the poor, leaves a light carbon footprint, so far, and leads by example! May all people of good will join him in making a more just Earthcommunity.
He chose his new name after St. Francis of Assisi (12th c.), whom we recall, was not only a humble reformer of the Church, but also, gives us a "kinship" model in relating respectfully to Creation and to its Creator. All creatures are brothers and sisters, not just objects to be used as we please. These gifts of God nourish us in many ways and help us to know God. John Paul II proclaimed St. Francis as Patron Saint of Ecology.
On our Journey in the 21st c. we are becoming more aware of how interdependent we are with the entire Earthcommunity. Climate change or any degradation of Earth impacts the poor the most, and eventually all of us. Charity and Just Environmental Policies work together for the common good, including basic rights and responsibilities. Many hope that Pope Francis promotes these in his efforts to help all in the Earthcommunity to reach their potential, especially the poor and marginalized.
