Summary: | In 2015, the first high-rank document on ecology in the history of the Catholic Church was published – the encyclical of Pope Francis Laudato siʼ. In it, the Pope calls for care for the “common home” – the Earth. In response to the appeal of Pope Francis, various organizations undertake activities to spread knowledge about ecology – one of them is Caritas Polska. The paper presents the results of research on the following research problems: 1. Does the Catholic organization Caritas Polska undertake projects in the field of environmental education and promotion of attitudes of respect for natural resources in the spirit of the Laudato siʼ encyclical, and if so, what kind of activities are they? 2. If Caritas Polska conducts activities in the field of environmental education, what is the public perception of these activities? As part of the own research, in order to obtain answers to the proposed research problems, a literature query on the subject was made (in terms of approximating the definition of environ-mental education and its essence), as well as a review of websites and profiles in Caritas Polskaʼs social media. The results of the survey on the reception of Caritas Polskaʼs activities in the context of ecology in society were also analyzed. |
