From Catholic Climate Covenant:

Join Catholic Climate Covenant’s online conversation featuring the editor and three-chapter authors of “Green Saints for a Green Generation,” a book written by young Catholic women (scientists, sisters, and theologians) on “saints” — canonized and not — who connect their faith to concern for our common home.  The writers raise traditional saints and contemporary figures who provide needed inspiration and hope for our ecological journeys and encourage all of us (young and old) to become green saints. The book is available here.
