A major element of Old Testament theology is God’s work as Creator. Because He the Creator, mankind is responsible to live in ways that show care for the Creation. This is a means of worshipping God.

George Hunsinger succinctly summarizes the ecological situation: "Whether the human race will survive the next century is not clear. What is clear is that the means and mechanisms of self-extinction already exist. Ecological destruction is the slow version, while the quick version is nuclear war and its military analogues, and the intermediate version is overpopulation and the gross maldistribution of resources."
