At Home in the Web of Life: Religious Values & Development.

Rausch, John S.

Now and Then, v13 n3 p30-33 Win 1996

In 1995, Appalachian Catholic bishops released a pastoral letter stating that Appalachia, the nation, and the world stand at a crossroads concerning future development. One direction continues down the path of ecological and social devastation. The bishops encourage the path of sustainable development based on religious values of respect for people, appreciation of creation, and promotion of community. (TD)
