Summary: | Environmental issues are on the agenda of major global confrontations; however many conservative governments have developed erratic policies on the issue. These governments have broad support from religious groups. In parallel, there is a discrediting of scientific information about environmental threats, especially through the internet. It is proposed that science may have religion as an ally, so it must be demonstrated that religious texts may indicate the need to harmonize with nature, especially in Christian belief groups. Science can make available evidence-based information on environmental threats, and religion can make its force and social energy available to change its thinking. |
