Offering an in-depth exploration of the intricate interplay between theology, ecology, and social justice, Facing Climate Collapse critically engages with the evolving discourse surrounding the 'Anthropocene' and presents a compelling argument for rebranding this epoch as the 'capitalocene.' Collectively offering a rigorous examination of diverse theological perspectives, including ecofeminist antiwar theology and a reimagining of salvation in the context of climate change, the chapters in this book present perspectives on ecological justice, indigenous wisdom, and congregational ecclesiology in Southern Africa. With contributions from various academic voices, including many from the Global South, this volume invites readers to engage with innovative concepts, challenge established paradigms, and explore fresh approaches to the pressing ecological issues of our era. This book is part of a new series of volumes co-published with the World Council of Mission’s DARE (Discernment And Radical Engagement) programme.
