Can religious people save the environment? Can the environmental
challenge save religion? Our planet is in trouble, and it will take
an amazingly large and powerful force to shift into a more
sustainable way of living. Spiritual leader and environmental
activist Andrea Cohen-Kiener tells us that people of faith have the
numbers, the passion and the mandate to do it—and that nothing
else is strong enough to counterbalance "business as usual." In
this urgent call to action, Cohen-Kiener gathers insights from
ecology coalitions, emerging theologies and spiritual and
environmental activists to rally and inspire us to work across
denominational lines in order to fulfill our sacred imperative to
care for God's creation. Cohen-Kiener and contributors clearly
outline the shared values of our faith traditions that drive our
commitment to care for the earth. Acknowledging the challenges in
working together to implement positive change, they present
steps—both big and small, for individuals and groups—for
reversing our direction from consumption to sustainability.
