This is the first book to provide an overview of how Muslim
activists are responding on the ground to the global environmental
crisis. The detrimental effects of environmental degradation are
felt most severely by the world's poor, a disproportionate number
of whom are Muslims. Unfortunately, governments of Muslim societies
have been slow to respond to environmental problems, while
opposition movements as well have mostly chosen to focus on other
issues. Nevertheless, environmental awareness and activism are
growing throughout the Muslim world. This book offers chapters by
leading Muslim environmentalists which survey environmental
initiatives in Egypt, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Nigeria, and
Malaysia. Issues are detailed pointing out both successes and
failures and describing the unique challenges facing the world's
very diverse Muslim societies in striving to balance development
and social justice with preserving the integrity of the earth's
life support systems.
