Other Models• Sustainable Consumption/Development
– Consumer Responsibility– Zero Waste - New Zealand
• Industrial and Human Ecology– Viewing human society as organic or organism (Gaia)– I.e wastes should only be produced that are used.
• New Age type philosophies– Deep-Ecology, how are humans to be valued– Ecological primacy, the natural world seeks justice due to waste
(Creation Groans???? - Rms 8)
• A biblical based Christian Environmental Ethic– Relatively new field
Simon Penney Chartered Wastes Manager Chartered Environmentalist Promise Consulting2004 - 15 Windsor Drive FALKIRK FK1 5QNT: 01324 638786 M: 07976310984E:[email protected] W:www.promiseconsulting.org.uk

Christian Based Ethic
• Ethics - the rights of the individual versus the rights of society - this is a key question in environment and waste management
• Stewardship - Of God World’s and Resources • Responsibility - To God for this• Accountability - By God about this• Love - To love our neighbour as ourselves
Simon Penney Chartered Wastes Manager Chartered Environmentalist Promise Consulting2004 - 15 Windsor Drive FALKIRK FK1 5QNT: 01324 638786 M: 07976310984E:[email protected] W:www.promiseconsulting.org.uk

Stewardship• Can our current use of materials and the
wastes they produce and the economies they feed be considered biblical stewardship?
• What would Biblical stewardship of materials resources look like and how would it differ from our current system?
• Waste production is a function of economic activity and a symptom of inequity. It is a measure of how we steward the planet.
Simon Penney Chartered Wastes Manager Chartered Environmentalist Promise Consulting2004 - 15 Windsor Drive FALKIRK FK1 5QNT: 01324 638786 M: 07976310984E:[email protected] W:www.promiseconsulting.org.uk

Responsibility
• Responsibility to our neighbour
• While there is nothing wrong with profit in the marketplace, in some cases we must voluntarily limit our profit in order to protect the environment. (Dr. Ray Bohlin)
• As individual Christians and as the Church do we take our responsibility for this stewardship seriously enough. Do we love our neighbour?

Accountability
• Accountability to God• As with other gifts and resources that God
has provided us with, one day we will be asked about how we used the Earth’s material resources, what will our answer be?
• The excess generation of wastes and their mis-management may be morally wrong and therefore sinful.

Economies of Love
“Imagine an economy based on Christian love
rather than greed.” - heaven?• Eternal rather than sustainable• Efficient and Effective• Demands and supplies perfectly matched
rather than partially (Perfect Relationship)• No waste produced, all materials utilised

• The Christian Church needs to lead on this important area, it is an issue of morality.
• This is a real opportunity for a reclaimed Christian Ethic to influence governmental policy.
• It is a wonderful opportunity for evangelism in both the developed and developing world.

Summary• Global Waste Generation is increasing
• Waste has many negative env/soc/eco impacts
• Waste production is morally questionable
• It impacts are undoubtedly evil, opportunity for mission
• The problem is essentially “religious” rather than technical
• Christianity is mandated to lead, but must work in partnership
• Change will happen individual by individual, government by government, nation by nation
