| Summary: | This paper addresses the urgent reality of the environmental crisis, underscoring its irreversible nature and the critical need for transformative action. It explores the complex intersections of capitalism, consumer culture, and climate justice, highlighting the profound societal challenges these forces create. Through case studies of two Christian congregations, the paper examines how their environmental education, advocacy efforts, and sustainable practices embody core theological principles. These case studies provide valuable insights for shaping effective advocacy and educational strategies, ultimately demonstrating the potential of religious communities to challenge dominant systems and inspire transformative social change in response to the environmental crisis. |
