This book addresses one of the greatest paradoxes of our time. While humanity faces the severest threat to its survival since its evolution, it neglects the richest reservoir of environmental wisdom available to it. The common core of teachings of the great religions on this topic enshrines the wisdom of millennia of human interaction with the environment. Yet this resource remains largely unknown and unused. It tends to be dismissed as irrelevant, visionary and impractical. This book builds a powerful bridge between the past and the present, between the religious and the secular and between the world's different cultures. It is a vital step forward towards protecting the rights of the future against the depredations of the present. It can make a significant impact on the way we regard and address the problems that threaten the very existence of humanity.
