Forum on Religion and Ecology (FORE)

The Forum on Religion and Ecology (FORE) is the largest international multireligious project of its kind. With its conferences, publications, and website it is engaged in exploring religious worldviews, texts, and ethics in order to broaden understanding of the complex nature of current environmental concerns.

The Forum recognizes that religions need to be in dialogue with other disciplines (e.g., science, ethics, economics, education, public policy, gender) in seeking comprehensive solutions to both global and local environmental problems.

This is "the" resource on religion and ecology.

Here is the video from which we watched a short clip; it features the founding directors of FORE, Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim.  It is also embedded on the home page of the FORE website.
