Faith & Environment Programs and Initiatives
General
- University
of Chicago Religion and Environment Initiative - an interfaith
community of students, scholars, and others who share concern
for the environment.
- Food
and Faith - Ultimately, the test of any food system, and the
policies that shape it, is a moral one. Our individual consumer
choices, our institutional actions and our public policies must
put human needs ahead of economic profits. They must recognize
and protect the dignity of humankind, and the integrity of God's
creation. They must foster community accountability and responsibility,
create broad-based ownership and opportunity for all. And they
must strengthen family, the community and society. In short, they
must uphold the vision of God's community of love.
