Pope Francis walks next to Carlo Petrini during an audience at the Vatican, Saturday, Sept. 12, 2020. Pope Francis has formed an unusual partnership with the agnostic former communist founder of the Slow Food movement to double down on his calls to protect the environment from profit-driven development that Francis says is harming the poorest most. Francis on Saturday welcomed Carlo Petrini to the Vatican and met with participants of a committee Petrini formed to help put into practice Francis’ appeals for environmental sustainability and solidarity articulated in his 2015 encyclical “Laudato Sii” (Praised Be).
