How do these passages explain and relate to the environmental issues?

Care for God's creation

“Look, the heavens, even the highest heavens, belong to the Lord, your God, as well as the earth and everything on it.” (Deuteronomy 10:14).

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat[or drink], or about your body, what you will wear… learn from the way the wildflowers grow… your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides” (Matthew 6:25-34).

“But how you use them, that is truly of utmost importance…. The well-to-do are admonished that wealth does not give surcease of sorrow, and that wealth is of no avail unto the happiness of eternal life but is rather a hindrance...and that on one day the strictest account for the use of wealth must be rendered to God as Judge” (Rerum Novarum “On the Condition of Labor and the Working Classes”), Pope Leo XIII, 1891, #21-22).

Sense of Community

“We love because he first loved us… this is the commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also loves his brother” (1 John 4:19-21).

“The most profound motive for our work is this knowing that we share in creation. Learning the meaning of creation in our daily lives will help us to live holier lives. It will fill the world with the spirit of Christ, the spirit of justice, charity, and peace” (Laborem Exercens (“On Human Work,” Donders translation), Pope John Paul II, 1981, #25).
