All faiths around the world share a common ethic over nature based on harmony although there is a wide gap between the religious texts and the current practices of religion. People’s negative attitude towards the environment can be attributed to the popular misconceptions about the influence of religious beliefs on environmental awareness and bridge inconsistencies other than communication. Communication roles are also invaluable in establishing awareness for improved coordination and teamwork to manage any developmental issues in the environment. Religion as a communication intervention is central to this task in many ways.
