Abstract (EN)
The science ecology has been shaped and made its importance felt in this century. It?s importance is parallel with mess of environment problems. At rhe beginning the scientists tried to solue the problems via science and technology but they couldn?t succeed in. Day by day enviranmental pollutice has become bigger. Tackling the proplem in the perspective of religion is a new way of thinking and it seems there in no any other solution to help human being.The forget of this study is to bring up the differences and similarities between the Islam and Christianity in tacling the proplem . Here is the some main items of this study;a) What?s way of thinking of Islam about environment? What kind of relation muslim societies has held on envinonment?b)What?s the tackling of environmental problems ofChristianity? And what kind of contact they made with environment?c)What are the similarities and differences between Islam and Christianity?Generally during the history of human being there has been a balance.In the times that religions were efficient, nature was thought holy.There was a harmony between the human and nature.Becoming more secular means getting away from nature and this spoiling the harmony .In generally religions envisage a way of life in the harmony with nature.Islam and Christianity accept nature as an art of God.All the factors in nature are subjective and valuable.This aspect of Christianity has changed durıng the reforms and Protestant view.Protestants thought the nature as any material,ignnored the relation between God and Human-being,tackling science instead of belief spoilt the relation between God and Man.In Christian world Protestant view was critized as the responsible of that environmental crisis.Catholics has the role ın that crisis,either but not as much as the Protestants.Nowadays Christianity tries to compensate its mistakes.Islam has many more environmental arguments but far behind Christian world as the conscious of environment
