STEWARDSHIP
:
Humans are looking after the earth for God – they are temporary keepers and so must ensure they return it in the condition God would want.
AUTHORITY/DOMINION:
Humans are in charge of the natural world. Some see this as meaning they can therefore do as they want with the world as it belongs to them.
RESPONSIBILITY:
God has given human beings the gift of the world and they have a duty to ensure it is passed on to future generations.
CREATION:
God created the world and everything in it – humans must therefore show respect and protect God’s creation.
