Resumen
Descripción
The authors explore the ecological
worldviews of eleven major world religions, and consider how
these can help shape effective environmental policy. At the
heart of this book is a discussion of how religions can work
with environment- and development-focused organizations,
both to provide alternative models of conservation
approaches, and to develop programs for their own faithful.
The world's religions can - through storytelling,
celebration, practice, spiritual guidance, activism in their
communities, and advocacy worldwide - be powerful, and
effective partners in a wide range of conservation
initiatives. The book includes a collection of the
faiths' core statements on conservation, brought
together for the first time.
