Cankarjev dom Literature and Humanities Religion and Environmental Awareness

The ambiguous attitude of monotheistic religions to the natural environment. While on the one hand, our world and nature are God’s creations, on the other hand nature is not divine in itself – humans are supposed to govern nature sensibly and subjugate it in accordance with their needs. This view is undergoing a shift. At the heart of this change are a greater sense of responsibility towards the world and an awareness of the co-belonging of all beings.
