Many of the most important conservation places in the world are sacred. Sites like the Amazon, South Dakota’s Black Hills, and the Mekong River are deeply rooted in local spiritual and cultural traditions. These places also face overwhelming threats, including deforestation, pollution, unsustainable extraction, melting glaciers and rising sea levels. Such threats not only endanger the integrity of ecosystems but also leave the people who live there impoverished and vulnerable.

Religion, Science & the Environment (RSE) is a non-governmental organization created in 1993, which seeks to provide common ground among the worlds of religion, science and the environment in the interest of protecting the environment. Under the guidance of His All Holiness Bartholomew, Ecumenical Patriarch of the Christian Orthodox Church, this mission has been addressed by holding seven water-based symposia as well as creating the Halki Ecological Institute and other training initiatives.
