The book is more than potential course material-it is also a helpful overview of the scholarly perspectives on how religion and the environment intersect in North America.

Reading Religion

This outstanding collection of essays makes an important contribution to the literature of Green religion in North America. Going far beyond the usual essays on the Abrahamic traditions, the authors explore such themes as race, queerness, identity, ethnicity, indigeneity, colonialism, and disability.

These essays will provoke rich discussions and formative student reflections ... Readers interested in environmentalism's roots will discover critical connections, such as the influence of Asian religions on American activism, the integration of Native American languages with care for nature, and the resacralization of Florida's degraded waters.

At once comprehensive and specific, this book gathers cutting edge scholarly perspectives on religion and environment. The consistent focus on North America emphasizes emplaced histories and helps show how theologies and religious ideas have shaped how people live on this continent.

This book listens to the trees, the birds, and the creatures of the earth, including those who are materializing indigenous, queer, anti-racist, and otherwise intersectional discourses of religion and nature in North America. It intensifies the evolution of environmentalism into a more honest and efficaciously entangled earth-force.
