Focusing concern and action
'Human beings have become the predominant destructive force on earth. With power of hands and minds amplified by machines, our impact exceeds that of great floods, hurricanes and earthquakes. The time has come that we can envisage the end of nature; the time has come to realise that we are able to destroy the earth.' - Calvin DeWitt
For the distinguished contributors to this book creation care is a matter of human survival and a supreme test of the reality of Christian faith. Such care is not the selfish interest of the developed North. Nor is it a minority enthusiasm peculiar to bird-watchers and tree-huggers. Rather, such concern comes from recognising God's creation commands and what should be a communion of worship between the human and natural worlds. There is a belated and increasingly evident humility abroad that scientific and political solutions alone are inadequate.
The care of creation addresses a requisite ethical and essentially religious response to our global environmental crisis. It incorporates the 1994 'Evangelical Declaration on the Care of Creation', since endorsed by several hundred church leaders throughout the world. The book also provides a stimulating and provocative international commentary by leading theologians and environmental practitioners.
