Just caught this on the BBC last night, but couldn't find anything on their website to give you all a nice linky.

Anyway, the Vatican has decided that the original seven deadly sins are no longer enough, and so has came up with seven more for the 'modern world'.

Among these sins are genetic modification, human experimentation, and obscene wealth. Not exactly sins I would imagine average Catholics commit. Of course, the Papacy feels the need to get everyone into their Confessions, and so his Hatness stuck 'polluting the environment' onto his list. So yes, you will now have to tell your local priest if you use to many plastic bags, or even leave a light on when you don't need it.

Apparently the Pope feels he has the authority to do this.
