Opis

The influence of religious beliefs on natural resources conservation is dynamic and cannot be over-emphasized in terms of its contribution to attitude formation and behavior towards natural resource utilization and management. These attitudes have varying impact on various natural resources of the environment. Religion is one of the social institutions that can be used to address the problem of resource over-exploitation, mismanagement and utilization. Christians use the Holy Bible for teaching its members ethical values and norms that would promote a better society. There is no instance in the Bible where over- exploitation, mismanagement and wasteful destruction of natural resources is advocated. Therefore, religious teaching on the principles of conservation, protection and proper utilization of resources may change human attitude from wanton destruction of the environment and its resources.
