THE ENVIRONMENT: Man's domination over inanimate and other living beings granted by the Creator is not absolute; it is limited by concern for the quality of life of his neighbour, including generations to come; it requires a religious respect for the integrity of creation. (The Catechism of the Catholic Church 2415).
