Down to Earth

Religious Paths toward Custodianship of Nature

Beschreibung

This book scientifically describes the multitude of environmental problems besetting planet earth and indicates why these environmental problems are, at their root, a spiritual or religious challenge. The author argues that learning the scientific descriptions of problems is not enough; attitudes must be changed and behavioral patterns must be altered.
