description By relying on his evangelical commitments, encounters, and experiences, this chapter engages the difficult task of raising awareness of the gravity of the climate crisis and plastic pollution. An increased awareness should lead to concrete actions aimed at protecting the environment and addressing the ongoing global climate crisis. To foster awareness and support actions, it interprets key Scriptural passages, articulates the evangelical commitment to protect life, and integrates contributions which depend on his training in Family Systems Theory. The outcome is a moral roadmap for responding to the global plastics crisis and, hopefully, ending it.
