CWN Editor's Note: “It is no time for half measures” was the headline of the most prominent front-page story in the October 27 of the Vatican newspaper.

“It could go down in history as ‘the speech of the dinosaur,’” the unsigned article began, as its author praised a new UN video in which a Tyrannosaurus Rex advises the international community not to choose extinction.

“It is difficult not to sense in the ‘speech of the dinosaur’ the echo” of recent remarks of UN Secretary-General António Guterres, the Vatican newspaper continued. Referring to COP26, the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, the article concluded, “Glasgow could be the last call.”

    It sounds like the only dinosaurs and fossils are residing in the Vatican on the wrong side of history and the use of fossil fuels.
