Description: Sustainability is now key to international and national policy manufacture and consumption. It is also central to many individuals who try to lead environmentally ethical lives. Historically religion has been a significant part of many visions of sustainability. Pragmatically the inclusion of religious values in conservation and development efforts has facilitated relationships between people with different value structures. Despite this little attention has been paid to the interdependence of sustainability and religion and no significant comparisons of religious and secular sustainability advocacy. Religion and Sustainability presents the first broad analysis of the spiritual dimensions of sustainability - oriented social movements. Exploring the similarities and differences between the conceptions of sustainability held by religious interfaith and secular organizations the book analyses how religious practice and discourse have impacted on political ideology and process.
