  • 環境與宗教的對話

    by 許木柱、何日生 ...
    牛津大學宗教人類學者彼得．克拉克（Peter Clarke）指出，現今科學家們面對氣候異常變化最大的難題在於，科學數據的理性分析似乎無法根本改變人類的行為，唯有加入宗教界的呼籲與引領，才能為惡化的環境給予更多具體的行動力量。證嚴上人曾說︰「要改變氣候，就要先改變人心；宇宙的大乾坤有溫室效應，人心的小乾坤也有心室效應。」當災難未萌時，他叮嚀人類應時時戒慎；當災難來臨時，他要求人類要謙卑自省。證嚴上人對於災難的同理心與萬物生命的平等觀，推動慈濟人於全球七十個國家進行急難救助，並於社區力行環保，為科學知識建立宗教實踐的典範。本書期以宗教情懷之視野與環境科學進行對話，期望在氣候急遽變遷的環境危機中，結合科學知識與宗教情懷，改變人類過度開發的舊思維，實踐對環境永續發展的承諾。本書特色:在氣候急遽變遷的危機中，人類如何與地球共生息？本書邀請國內外知名學者與作者，就環保與生態、環保與健康、環保與宗教 ...
