Int 393 Senior Interdisciplinary Seminar (3) Christian
Stewardship and Global Issues
Ozone depletion, environmental degradation, overpopulation, famine, species
extinction....We live in a time unlike any other in history. Humanity is
on the threshold of shutting down the life support systems of the planet.
Some would suggest that there remains open to us a small window of time
in which we can act to stave off planetary catastrophe. What should be
the Christian communities response to such dire predictions? Do we have
a unique and critical role to play or is it perhaps already too late?
Int 391 Senior Interdisciplinary Seminar (3) Current
