Concern for Creation

---

This book is about participating in a conversation seeking to develop a holistic spirituality and theology. At its heart is the aboriginal conviction that everything is connected. It contains personal biographical story to encourage others to enter its whole of Creation Theology. It is about more than just us humans.In the writing of theology, it is always important to address its applicability to the contemporary context. In our time that context is “climate change” and all the complex issues surrounding the warming of our planet. This book begins with a summary of the interconnected issues that we now face. It also looks at some proposed strategies for mitigating the impacts of climate change. There is an awareness that climate change arises from human rather than natural activity.?The book then turns to a Tasmanian aboriginal theology that emerges out of colonial invasion. Themes from this theology are then followed through from the perspective of European philosophy, science and Christian theology. The last section of the book contains some reflection on what has come before. It seeks to discover hope for our children in a context where hope seems in short supply.
