Abstrak

Krisis lingkungan global menuntut pendekatan baru dalam pelestarian alam, termasuk perspektif religius seperti Kekristenan. Perspektif Kristen menawarkan kerangka teologis dan etis yang penting untuk pengelolaan lingkungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi dan menganalisis kontribusi perspektif Kristen terhadap pengelolaan lingkungan hidup melalui pendekatan tinjauan pustaka sistematis. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan tinjauan pustaka sistematis untuk mengeksplorasi konsep ekologi dalam perspektif Kristen. Data dikumpulkan dari database akademik utama seperti Scopus dan Google Scholar dengan fokus pada eko-teologi dan pengelolaan lingkungan dari sudut pandang Kristen. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa doktrin penciptaan dan pemeliharaan dalam Kekristenan mendukung tanggung jawab lingkungan. Dialog antaragama, integrasi spiritualitas Kristen dengan isu ekologis, dan pemahaman eko-teologis yang komprehensif merupakan kunci untuk mengatasi krisis lingkungan. Penelitian ini mendorong komunitas Kristen untuk terlibat aktif dalam upaya pelestarian lingkungan dan mengembangkan strategi pengelolaan yang berlandaskan pada nilai-nilai spiritual. Dialog dan kolaborasi antar komunitas religius dapat memperkuat upaya keberlanjutan global.
