Page "Spiritual ecology" Paragraph 6

In this context, religion and spirituality provide motivation, values, and guidance to work on environmental causes.

Among the most outstanding persons in this domain are the Passionist Priest Thomas Berry, the Orthodox Christian leader the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I in Greece, Martin Palmer of the Alliance of Religions and Conservation in the United Kingdom, and Sulak Sivaraksa of the International Network of Engaged Buddhists in Thailand.

As a specific example, Interfaith Power and Light founded by Reverend Sally G. Bingham is an initiative responding in very practical ways to the reality of global climate change by effectively promoting energy efficiency and conservation through many thousands of diverse religious organizations and their members in more than 39 states of the United States of America.
