    In the last few decades, man has chosen a life-​style that has resulted in massive pollution of the earth’s biosphere​—soil, rivers, oceans, and atmosphere have been poisoned. The problem is truly international. As the pope stated in his message for the World Day of Peace (January 1, 1990): “In many cases the effects of ecological problems transcend the borders of individual States; hence their solution cannot be found solely on the national level.”​—L’Osservatore Romano, December 18-26, 1989.
