Resumen
 
 
Religion has a responsibility in the addressing of environmental issues and the promotion of sustainability. The involvement of religious leaders such as Pope Francis and the Dalai Lama in environmental causes highlights the significance of religion in sustainability. However, there are questions about how institutionalized religion and theology can contribute to a sustainable world system. This paper provides a general perspective and guidelines on how Religion, in dialogue with Science, can contribute to our sustainability goals. Theology must become more contextually aware and offer clear guidance to individuals. A partnership between theology and science is necessary to distinguish between constructive and destructive beliefs, both fields having their own unique competencies. In the face of the climate crisis, theology has the potential to educate and inspire its followers to adopt attitudes and lifestyles that lead to a more sustainable future. Religion gives a purpose and justification for making the necessary sacrifices for a sustainable system. This can only be achieved if theology establishes connections with other fields, including technology and the humanities, and initiatives focused on sustainability. This requires a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between religion, society, and culture, with religion playing a role in conjunction with other social systems.
