Mary Evelyn Tucker: "Religion, Ecology, and the Future"

Mary Evelyn Tucker: "Religion, Ecology, and the Future"

This week, religious scholar Mary Evelyn Tucker unpacks the entanglement of religion and ecology from an academic perspective. She and Nate discuss what the roots of environmental ethics in religions all over the world look like and how they've been evolving in the face of a climate and biodiversity crisis. Could we learn and leverage the uniting power of religion to help us organize and mobilize against impending global crises?
