Una ecología cristiana en un mundo insostenible

Una ecología cristiana en un mundo insostenible

Álvaro Hernández Acevedo

This article intends to reflect about the role of Christian thinking on the care of the environment, from an approach to sustainability. The Christian believer’s mission is the recognition of his/her intimate relationship with the ecosystem that goes beyond the not alive human, but must be understood as the context of his founding experience with God. The destruction of the environment is a sin in the eyes of God, who entrusted the man with its dominion, which must be assumed in terms of care, protection and defense, including the promotion of human dignity in every living being, as it is the glory of God.
