520 8  This collection of essays discusses the human relationship
       with, and responsibilities toward, the natural environment
       from the perspective of religions and the social sciences.
       The chapters examine a variety of conditions that have 
       contributed to the contemporary environmental crisis, 
       including abuse of power, economic greed, 
       industrialization, deforestation, and unplanned waste 
       management. They then discuss concepts from several 
       different religious texts and traditions that promote 
       environmental protection as a sacred moral duty for all 
       humanity. Religious concepts such as dharma (duty toward 
       Mother Earth), tikkun Olam (repair of the world), khalifa 
       (people as deputies of God on earth), amanah (the universe
       as a trust in human hands), and paticca samuppada 
       (dependent co-arising) are employed to argue that all the 
       components of the biosphere are integral to the cosmos, 
       each piece with its own value and role in the harmony of 
       the whole. The book makes it clear that religions can 
       become more "green" and play a helpful role in raising our
       ecological consciousness and supporting preservation of 
       the environment into the future.--|cPublisher's website
