A growing chorus of voices has suggested that the world's religions
may become critical actors as the climate crisis unfolds,
particularly in light of international paralysis on the issue. In
recent years, many faiths have begun to address climate change and
its consequences for human societies, especially the world's poor.
This is the first volume to use social science to examine how
religions are helping to address one of the most significant and
far-reaching challenges of our time. While there is a growing
literature in theology and ethics about climate change and
religion, little research has been previously published about the
ways in which religious institutions, groups and individuals are
responding to the problem of climate change. Seventeen
research-driven chapters are written by sociologists,
anthropologists, geographers and other social scientists. This book
explores what effects religions are having, what barriers they are
running into or creating, and what this means for the global
struggle to address climate change.
