“We need an ecological conversion, part of which is to get to know and discover again nature and the values of the created world. We need to develop a renewed, harmonious relationship with our environment, becoming aware of the complex interconnection between God and human nature. Ecological conversion strengthens sustainability; and vice versa, integrating sustainability into the functioning of our ecclesial and secular institutions fosters ecological conversion.” (József Benedek, Introduction).
