At last churches and theologians are beginning to be aware of the implications for Christian belief of the concatenation of problems from global warming to pollution through toxic waste which may be referred to in shorthand as the ecological crisis. Prayers for the natural world appear now in liturgies, and many churches have changed their Harvest Festivals, which celebrated God's goodness to humanity into Creation Festivals, which both give thanks and show concern for the natural world
