Evolving Interactions: Man, Environment, and Socio - Religious Dynamics in the Face of Global Challenges
Abstract: In the 21st century because of global warming, an environmental concern has become the focus of all nations and communities. But hundred years back it this very relationship between man and nature, now more holistic called ?the environment? was very different premised. Since the heydays of the industrial revolution and the emergence of capitalism as systemic appropriation of resources foe development, the face of the world have changed and continues to do so. The ?blame game? and ?responsibility sharing? that is being played out between nations of the world, developed and developing, over protection and exploitation of resources have raised and brought forward the conflicting and contentious history of resource sharing into focus. The relationship of people/communities and environment have always been tenuous and based on understanding and tolerance and also aggression. It is also based on our notions of civilization and progress. The study of environmental history therefore has also become a history not only of forests, rivers, but also of agriculture, climate, economic practices and human culture. But the study of religion and environment help the development of human civilization. The central problem specific to thinking about the environment, is the independent value to place on such things as preservation of species, or protection of the wilderness. Balance between man and environment is essential if we like to save our civilisation from ultimate demolition. My effort will be to show that a large portion of the environment depends on socio - religious, ethical - religious values etc.
