 Introduction
When implementing something new,
like creating a religion for
environmental and sustainability, there
are two possibilities: it can have a
positive impact or a negative impact. In
this case, the new religion could bring
both good and bad consequences. Let's
explore both sides of this topic.
 Debate for !
Creating a new religion just for the environment and sustainability could help us to take
better care of the Earth. Here are some reasons why this could be a good idea:
 People would be more aware and caring about the environment if it was a part of
their religion.
 Many religions already say it's important to protect the Earth, so making it a central
part of a new religion could remind people of this duty.
 Religion can bring people together, so a new religion focused on the environment
could help unite different groups to work together on environmental issues.
 Rituals and practices in a new environmental religion could help people appreciate
nature and live more sustainably.
 Having a separate religion for the environment could encourage long-term thinking
and actions that prioritize the health of the planet.

 But there are also reasons why creating a new
environmental religion might not be the best idea:
 It could cause more division among people with
different beliefs.

Debate  There are already ways to promote environmentalism

without needing a new religion.
Against  A new religion could become too strict and limit free
thinking and collaboration.
!  Introducing a new religion could disrespect existing
cultural beliefs about the environment.
 It would be difficult and costly to set up a new
religious institution.

 Conclusion
Instead of creating a new
religion, we should come up
with ways that everyone can use
to help the environment, no
matter what they believe. These
ways should be based on facts
and include everyone.
