Christians and other faiths are becoming increasingly aware of the connection between sustainable eco-systems and God’s promise for eternal life. Yet because of human resource consumption, earth’s eco-systems are no longer able to sustain themselves and the species dependent on them. If we trust in God’s promise, we must live sustainably.
This conference seeks to engage theology with key ecological concerns from a variety of religious traditions and spiritual perspectives. We are interested in multi-disciplinary exchanges and insights, with a focus on faith-based and scientific approaches to ecological problems and challenges. The emphasis is on a sustainable ecological future. The conference will be a blend of learning and discussion.
Sponsored by Trinity Western University, Environmental Studies Department, The Institute of Theology and Ecology of the Orthodox Academy of Crete, Canadian Forum on Religion and Ecology, United Church of Canada, Be the Change Earth Alliance, and A Rocha Canada in BC.
