Partha Dasgupta, Chair of CSER, is the lead author for the Vatican workshop report, Climate Change and the Common Good: A Statement Of The Problem And The Demand For Transformative Solutions. This statement summarizes scientific agreement from the recent Protect The Earth, Dignify Humanity summit. Its authors recommend that the Catholic Church can help by mobilising public opinion and public funds to meet the energy needs of the world’s poorest.
CSER’s co-founder Martin Rees was an author to the paper, alongside Jeffrey Sachs, Veerabhadran Ramananthan, and several others. Two dozen other climate scientists, pontifical academics and religious leaders are signatories.
