Description
This episode of Blue Earth is a conversation with Father Andrea Vicini, S.J. of Boston College. He is Professor of Moral Theology and Professor of Bioethics. He holds numerous degrees including an M.D. from the University of Bologna and a Ph.D. from Boston College. His research interests include moral theology, bioethics, genetics and environmental issues.
Future Frogmen’s President, Richard Hyman, first met Father at Fairfield University, where he lectured on “Saving the Earth: Ethics, Health Care, and the Common Good". Richard was impressed by Father Vicini’s ability to relate to the common man, and his concern for the earth and environmental sustainability.
Given today’s humanitarian crisis, and forced migrations as a result of sea level rise and other impacts, we thought it was important to repurpose our 2019 video conversation with Father Vicini, and share it with you on Blue Earth.
Our guest host for this episode is Donald M. Kerwin Jr., the Executive Director of the Center for Migration Studies of New York. Mr. Kerwin writes and speaks extensively on immigration policy, refugee protection, access to justice, national security, and other issues.
