When religions have misled human beings into a false belief about a God out there, and have also emphasized that this world, nay, even this whole universe is created by a so-called creator-god for the enjoyment of Man, what else can we expect?

 

[prasad1]

Depends on the definition of God.
If God is Abrahamic God, or cult God, then there can be conflict with Nature.
If God is Brahman of Advaita, then there is no conflicts. Nature is in Brahman.
You can not destroy Brahman.

Superb Quote!
Don't we find this thought reverberating in the our oft-used "Sarvam Krishna/Vasudeva/ Shakti Mayam Jagat"?
However, we have been honouring this maxim more in its breach rather than in its observance, much to our own and of our planet's detriment!

Agni, Vayu, Arga , Vaakeesa, Varuna, Indra..........are all forms of nature worshipped by Hindus.

Some persons paints themselves with identities of particular belief.
It hold good for either.
By standing before the mirror " THY COULD KNOW THEE AND REALISE WHO THY ARE" .

[h=1]India needs two countries like itself to sustain current consumption levels[/h]

Global consumption of natural resources has reached dangerously unsustainable levels. On August 13, the earth would have used up its budget of available natural resources, mainly land, water and forests, for the entire year.
Observed as ‘Earth Overshoot Day', this day marks humanity’s ecological footprint exceeding what the earth can regenerate this year. Every year the Global Footprint Network calculates the number of days in that year for which the earth can support humanity’s ecological footprint with its available natural resources. The remainder of the year corresponds to the global overshoot.
Derek Eaton, vice-president of Research with the Global Footprint Network in Geneva, told The Hindu that Indians have consistently had one of the lowest per capita ecological footprint. Historically, cropland and forest footprint made for the largest ecological footprints until the late 1980s when carbon started outgrowing them. Today, cropland (38 per cent) and carbon (42 per cent) together makes up for 80 per cent of India’s ecological footprint. While India’s ecological footprint is way below that of industrialised and developed nations, its current consumption rates do exceed its biocapacity. At current consumption levels, Indians would need two countries of its size to sustain itself.
According to WWF, in 2000, Earth Overshoot Day fell in the month of October, but over the last decade it has moved to an earlier date in August. And given the rate at which increasing global consumption and population has been exerting pressure on available natural resources, this day would eventually move to May 8, WWF says. The planet first went into a consumption overshoot in the early 1970s.
