What has faith to do with the environment? Scriptural and theological perspectives – Dr Hilary Marlow

Fri 3 July 2020

Although our attention in the past few months has been focused on the COVID-19 pandemic, environmental challenges have not gone away. No-one could fail to be aware that the world is facing a serious crisis, one that threatens global security and the wellbeing of countless people, not to mention other species. But how do we respond? What are the best or the right courses of action? How might religious faith help us respond to some of the tough questions raised by our use of earth’s resources? This talk will examine questions such as these with a particular focus on the Christian tradition and scriptures.

Biblical Scholar Dr Hilary Marlow is a freelance researcher, writer and speaker on the Bible and environmental issues in a range of contexts, both academic and non-academic. She is a Graduate Tutor at Girton College Cambridge and teaches in the Faculty of Divinity. Hilary relaxes by tending a small field just outside Cambridge with her husband Ian, where they grow fruit and vegetables and have nesting barn owls.
