The Interfaith Center for Sustainable Development (ICSD) accesses the collective wisdom of the world’s religions to promote co-existence, peace, and sustainability through education and action.

In, 2012, ICSD held an Interfaith Climate and Energy Conference involving world and Holy Land-based religious leaders speaking out on the ethical imperative and religious basis for action on climate change and use of renewable energy. To learn more, click here.

Why This is Needed

As Japan’s nuclear energy crisis, the BP oil spill, and global climate change increasingly show, humanity faces significant challenges with regard to living sustainably on the planet. All three issues point to both crises and opportunities. They challenge us all to live better and walk more wisely and responsibly on the Earth.

Through education and action-oriented projects, ICSD encourages the cooperation and training of religious leaders, teachers, and communities on ecological issues and advocacy.
