Pope Francis was given
10 electric bikes Wednesday to thank him for his 2015 ecological
encyclical Laudato Si' which warned against man-made climate
change.
One, for the Vatican press office, is from the directors of
the NWG bike-making firm in Prato.
NWG gave Francis's predecessor Benedict XVI an electric
mini-car in 2012.
The NWG executives were accompanied by the green
association Anter who are trying to raise schoolchildren's
awareness of environmental issues with a project called Sun in
the Classroom.
