EP: 101 Environment, Islamic Perspective, and Climate Change

İbrahim Özdemir is a professor of philosophy and the Founding President of Hasan Kalyoncu University, Turkey. He holds a Doctorate degree in philosophy from the Middle East Technical University, Ankara and a Bachelor's degree in Islamic Theology and Islamic Philosophy from Ankara University Turkey.

Although his major is environmental ethics and environmental philosophy, he addresses various audiences concerning topics such as environmental philosophy, Muslim environmental thought, sustainable development, religion and the environment, interreligious and intercultural dialogue, peace education, and Higher Education Leadership.

Dr İbrahim Özdemir, the founding president of Hasan Kalyoncu University and author of The Ethical Dimension of Human Attitude Towards Nature: A Muslim Perspective, believes that the growing number of Muslim environmentalists can find inspiration for their aggressive campaign against global warming from Islam itself.

Özdemir notes that the Quran and other religious texts call on Muslims to defend the natural environment, a job more critical now than ever.
