Can humans flourish without destroying the earth? In this book,
experts on many of the world's major and minor religious traditions
address the question of human and earth flourishing. Each chapter
considers specific religious ideas and specific environmental
harms. Chapters are paired and the authors work in dialogue with
one another. Taken together, the chapters reveal that the question
of flourishing is deceptively simple. Most would agree that humans
should flourish without destroying the earth. But not all humans
have equal opportunities to flourish. Additionally, on a basic
physical level any human flourishing must, of necessity, cause some
harm. These considerations of the price and distribution of
flourishing raise unique questions about the status of humans and
nature. This book represents a step toward reconciliation: that
people and their ecosystems may live in peace, that people from
different religious worldviews may engage in productive dialogue;
in short, that all may flourish.
