Pope Francis has warned that mankind is facing a second great flood caused by climate change unless leaders act to fix corruption and injustice. The 84-year-old said that, in the story of the great flood in the Bible, God used his wrath to punish injustice and 'clean up' the world. He then issues his warning about a second 'great flood', adding that wrath can also be a saviour if it convinces people to change their ways. Pozza's book, which is based on a series of conversations he had with Pope Francis, is due to be published today. Francis will also visit a church in Baghdad where worshippers were massacred by Islamic extremist gunmen in 2010.
