Pope Francis is hosting a gathering next week at the Vatican with executives of major oil producers and investment firms to talk about how the companies can address climate change, according to several people familiar with the event.

Why it matters: It’s one of the most significant developments showing how corporations are working with other world leaders on climate change amid President Trump’s whole-scale retreat on the issue.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Sounds like a very Pope-ish thing to do. I'm sure Jesus is very worried about 'Climate Change' and global oil investors.

What a stupid naive thing the Vicar of Christ is doing.

The only thing this will accomplish is this will drive more people away from the church
