Is Global Warming a Spiritual Question?

21 Religious Leaders Say YES!

Love God Heal Earth What does it take to power a great awakening about Earth’s environmental crisis? Until recently, science has been alone in sounding the alarms while many religious leaders have held back, viewing global warming as a purely secular issue. Now, in an unprecedented demonstration of unity and moral purpose, religious voices from across the spectrum–liberal, conservative, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists–are joining in one of the largest movements in human history…declaring the environment to be an urgent matter of faith. In Love God, Heal Earth: 21 Leading Religious Voices Speak Out on Our Sacred Duty to Protect the Environment (St. Lynn’s Press, 2009, ISBN: 798-0-9800288-3-6, $17.95), the Rev. Canon Sally G. Bingham brings together 21 highly regarded spiritual leaders from diverse faiths to make the case for environmental stewardship and show how their faith communities are tackling the issue of religion and environment.

Comments about this book from the worlds of science and religion:

Love God, Heal Earth is a historically important contribution. Its authors of diverse faiths recognize that protecting the planet and all of life is a transcendent responsibility – for both the scientists who study it and those of religious faith who are able to express its spiritual importance.” –E.O. Wilson, Harvard biologist and naturalist, author of The Creation: an Appeal to Save Life on Earth

Love God, Heal Earth features some of the clearest and most compelling voices in the emerging creation care movement–a unifying and rallying point for people of faith from across diverse traditions.” –Jim Wallis, President of Sojourners, author of The Great Awakening.
