The ecological crisis in which humanity has found itself includes the problems of mass deforestation, as well as soil, water and air pollution. Additional stress on the environment is created by global warming, which is caused by the formation of greenhouse gases. All of this has a negative effect on the ecological system, causes the migration of plant and animal life, and related to that, also humans. The most negative impact is on the poor who live off natural resources. To prevent further degradation of the environment and to provide a fair legacy to future generations, many scientists began to work to raise awareness about the environmental crisis. However, the measures that were focused on educating the individual did not have a sufficient impact on his upbringing. Modern culture is dominated by capitalism, consumerism and materialism, which are encouraged by multinational companies in order to achieve maximum profit. A man is psychologically under pressure to embrace excessive consumerism and consumption, which in turn creates great production needs. Production again often brings with it new pressure on the environment, and products end up as waste at the end of their life. The response to this human condition may among others be provided by religions and their religious worldviews. Most of the world's population belongs to some religion. Religions contain wisdom accumulated over the ages, they often provide a different perspective on life, focused on spiritual values, nature, and just relationship between people. The education that would provide the farsightedness of society, increase man's concern for nature, other creatures, and people in the present and also future generations is indispensable. Negative pressure on the environment would thus reduce. The future of humanity depends on whether it will manage to overcome this ecological crisis.
