God saw all that God had made, and behold, it was
very good.
– Genesis 1:31
GreenFaith helps religious institutions and their
members adopt sustainable consumption habits.
Global consumption patterns damage the Earth, whether
it’s the slash-and-burning of the Amazonian rain forests, the
burning of coal to power the rise of China or the
consumption of the advanced economies of the developed world. Yet to
whom much is given, much is asked… Americans, who consume more
than the citizens of any nation on Earth, have today a responsibility
and an opportunity to change the patterns of their consumption.
The good news? Environmentally preferable, life-enhancing
alternatives exist. In this "Stewardship" section of our website,
you'll find out about GreenFaith's programs to help religious institutions
and individuals green their consumption habits, and how to take
part in those
programs. You'll also find a wealth of information
to help you learn more about how to reduce the impact of your consumption
on the environment every day.
O children of
Adam, eat and drink, but do not be wasteful.
Allah does not like wastefulness!
– Koran, Sura 7:31
