Interfaith Education and the Environment cont.

• The Appalachian Ministries Education Resource Center funds educational seminars on social justice and environmental issues for theological students and church leaders from its consortium of Protestant, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox seminaries.
• Theological Education to Meet the Environmental Challenge (TEMEC) identified and encouraged colleges, seminaries, and theological schools to make eco-justice a central focus of scholarship, teaching, and operations.
  
• Increasing interest in the intersection of religion and environment is being reflected in other areas of higher education as well:
  
• Colleges and universities are offering courses in religion and nature. Syllabi can be found in the on-line collections maintained by The American Academy of Religion, The Web of Creation, the Forum on Religion and Ecology, and The Wabash Center Guide to Internet Resources for Teaching and Learning in Theology and Religion.
  

• Graduate Programs in religion and the environment are being developed at public universities. The University of Florida Department of Religion is the first program in the U.S. to offer a doctoral degree in Religion and Environment, and the University of Hawai'i Anthopology Department offers an optional concentration in Spiritual Ecology in its Ecological Anthropology Program.
  
• Education also takes place through publications such as Earthlight, a magazine whose content is ecumenical and spiritually inclusive, and which is published by an organization with Quaker roots.
