Tackling issues of climate justice on behalf of a catholic organisation, the Pope's encyclical - declaring the climate a commons - has been motivation, support and challenge at once. The main message – environmental and social problems have to be thought and fought together – has not been easy to accept for a „development“ organisation. I was surprised to see the great resonance among environmental groups – or maybe not...? I think (commitment to) change has a fundamentally ethical dimension. No surprise: the encyclical contains many disputable things, too, for example a chapter about (the concept of) work, limiting it mostly to employment. Reimagining the future of my own work, I would love to reduce my employed time in favour of more "Eigenarbeit" and conviviality, dedicating time to my family, kids (8, 9, 11), friends and the Commons-Institute I co-founded. I see a chance for the commons paradigm to gain ground within my professional environment, however, so far it has mainly been my personal commitment.
