| Summary: | The theological question concerning ecology first occurs in France in 1962 with the thesis by Gérard Siegwalt in the Protestant community. It becomes more urgent in the United States in 1967 with the first replies to Lynn White Jr’s critiques in his article on the historical causes of the ecological crisis. Whereas ecological issues are introduced later in the Catholic community through the Church’s social doctrine and thus seen as within moral theology, several movements in Christian theology arise that propose to understand the modalities of possible relationships between theology and ecology in the form of a theology of ecology or ecotheology. In the context of integral ecology and announcement of the Good Word of creation according to the encyclicalLaudato si’, White’s critiques especially call for re-examining the production of representations of nature provided by the theological discourse on creation arising from Revelation. These representations are not neutral in regards to an ethics of the relationship between human beings and nature. Theologians hence discovered their ethical responsibility within the framework of the struggle against the ecological crisis that enable them to explore their own calling to be guardians of our common house. |
