Islam & Ecology

When I was first asked to represent the local mosque at the monthly meetings of Glasgow's Interfaith group, the gatherings usually began with a short talk themed around an annually changing topic to provide a focus for discussion, with the different faith representatives taking turns to give an understanding of these themes from their own perspective. These are the notes for a talk I gave to the group on one of these occasions in March 1991, just after Saddam Hussein had set fire to the Kuwaiti oil wells - hence the war related opening. I will try to make the whole thing more intelligible sometime.
