According to time.com: "Sins increasingly manifest themselves as behavior that damages society as a whole, Monsignor Gianfranco Girotti said in an interview published Sunday by the Vatican's daily newspaper, L'Osservatore Romano."
Now, those risking eternal punishment must also beware of these:
Thou shall not push or abuse drugs
Thou shall not pollute the Earth
Thou shall beware genetic manipulation
Thou shall not commit economic injustices
Thou shall not be obscenely wealthy
Thou shall not have or assist with abortion
Thou shall not commit pedophilia

Are these new "rules" retroactive, I wonder. Under this authority, would those in heaven who broke these "rules" during their life be expelled.

I don't think that the church is saying we are responsible for other people's pollution, just our own.
They seem just like the original seven to me.
Thou shall not push or abuse drugs (lust)
Thou shall not pollute the Earth (gluttony)
Thou shall beware genetic manipulation (pride)
Thou shall not commit economic injustices (greed)
Thou shall not be obscenely wealthy (greed)
Thou shall not have or assist with abortion (wrath)
Thou shall not commit pedophilia (lust) - 4 years ago

Serious? Really? But it sounds like the updated version so it can match with the new millennium. Evolution is real and this is directed to the generations beneath our own.

Check out this interesting article into one of the Vatican's chosen new sins, Pollution, which asks:
"If pollution is a sin, then who do we penance?'
