According to the Mass. Interfaith Climate Action Network mission statement:

Our faith traditions speak to us in different ways. We are united, however, in seeing the world not simply as resources to deplete, but as a magnificent gift of which we are an integral part and for which we have an abiding responsibility. When we view the world through the lenses of our faiths, our response is one of gratitude and reverence that impels us to action. The crisis of global warming is dire, threatening our lives, our communities, our society, and our future as a planet.
