By incorporating religion into the basic tenants of religion, the world may become a better place. Areas that hold strong religious ties to the environment tend to have more beautiful landscapes, not because they were blessed with them in the first place, but because their inhabitants fought to protect them. If people the world over began to see divinity in nature the effects of environmental travesties such as deforestation would diminish. Legislation would be passed to protect nature, just like it has been passed to protect other holy places.
This article shows how the people in Indonesia shows how religion has helped to reduce environmental damage.
