🌍 Can religion and spirituality help us solve the climate crisis? Last May, our Project Leader Ramón Soneira-Martínez raised this issue at the Instituto Cervantes Berlin during the 'Religare' symposium. Listen to his question to the panel! 🧵👇
"Is this another question in the room? If not, I have one small, maybe I can. I mean, for me, it was really, really interesting. It's an open question. Let's say it's not directed to any one of you. But for me, it was really interesting, the conclusion of this discussion regarding religion also as an attempt also to create new relations between each other. And I think it was really interesting. I mean, it was already mentioned, Laudato Si, and how in this encyclical is so important also a new ecological relationship with the world and with the world we inhabit. Also, I mean, the Islamic world has articulated also this global response in Almizan, a covenant for the Earth is also at this point. And even nowadays, also in social media, we can see how ecological activists they're using as a kind of connection, a kind of sacred connection with nature. So my question is, can religion in a way or spirituality develop this role in the future as a kind of creating new relations, not only with each other, but also with the nature, and in a way also replying to this climate challenge we're facing and also the polarization that was also one where almost every one of you was using at some point. So can we say that in very free course, if we are like, this attempt to create like a new kind of relationship, not only with the world, but also between us? I mean, I always have a really open question, but I mean, as a closing to Religari, maybe it's great."
