This book explores how religious traditions can play a decisive role in addressing the complexity of the current environmental crisis by taking the ecological recommendations promoted by religious and political actors to the ground of individual and community experiences. It observes how religious institutions have elaborated their “eco-religious” message by reinterpreting their texts and doctrines and how their communities have reacted. The book also focuses on new usages of spaces and resources through the intermediation of technological devices, as well as accelerated processes of technological innovation within religious groups that once would have shown great resistance. This book is of importance to scholars of not just the humanities, but also to scientists looking to deepen their understanding of religion and sustainability.Chapter "Religion´s Relationship with the Environment, Society and Technology Intersection: Insights from a Catholic Intentional Community in Rural Appalachia" is available open access under a via link.springer.com.
