ABSTRACT
Environmental problems will not go away. In fact, the slow degradation of natural resources, climate change, loss of biodiversity, and pollution of the commons seem set to remain on the global agenda for many years to come. The difference between now and the 1970s is that green issues no longer seem so shocking, nor is it necessary to be politically left wing in order to be concerned about environmental issues. Yet underlying the broadened environmental concern and the more widespread commitment to tackle environmental issues are varied philosophies and religious frameworks. The broad spectrum of environmental ethics includes the religious views of Christian theologians and their range of possible responses to the environmental problems at hand.
