    Welcome to ReligionandNature.com

    your source for information about the complex relationships among the religious perceptions and practices of the earth’s peoples and their diverse environments.
    ReligionandNature.com hosts the International Society for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture, and features important scholarly works, including the award-winning Encyclopedia of Religion and Nature, and the Society-affiliated Journal for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture.
    ReligionandNature.com's Forum provides news and resources for the media, concerned citizens, and scholars who wish to keep abreast of developments in the exciting and raucously interdisciplinary religion and nature field. The Forum also will provide a venue for ongoing discussion, debate, and collaboration. We hope that all who are interested in the nexus of what is variously understood to be ‘religion,’ ‘spirituality,’ ‘nature’ and ‘ecology,’ – and who wish to deepen their understanding of the relationships between ecosystems and religious perceptions and practices -- will find much of value, and return regularly, to our web site.
    As the host of ReligionandNature.com I wish to welcome you to the site's third major edition and thank all of those who contributed to it. Their names can be found at About and among the leaders identified in the Society and Journal pages.
