Their concern reflects not just the selfish interest of the developed North. Nor is it merely a minority enthusiasm, peculiar to bird-watchers and tree-huggers. Rather, it stems from God's creation commands, from Christ's reconciling work, and from what should be a communion of worship between the human and natural worlds. There is now a belated and increasingly evident humility abroad, which recognizes that scientific and political solutions alone are inadequate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Care of Creation\u003c\/i\u003e starts from the \u003ci\u003eEvangelical Declaration on the Care of Creation\u003c\/i\u003e of 1994, which has been endorsed by several hundred church leaders throughout the world. This book is a stimulating and provocative international commentary by leading theologians and environmental practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors include: Richard Bauckham, R. J.
