Vatican to go Carbon Neutral
The Vatican is making plans to be the world’s first carbon-neutral sovereign state. It is planning to offset its emissions through a tree-planting program in Hungary.
Planktos-Klimafa, a San Franscisco-based company, will plant the trees over a 7000-hectare lot.
Jose Sanchez de Toca y Alameda Pontificalo Council of Culture under-secretary, said that the Vatican “wanted to do its bit to fight pollution on earth and to contribute to improving the planet that God gave to humans so that they could be the servants of nature and not its masters”, even though the Vatican’s emissions were already very low.
