The Role of Religion in Climate Solutions: Interview with Yonatan Neril

Welcome to the Climate Confident Podcast! In this episode, I have an insightful conversation with Yonatan Neril, founder and director of the Interfaith Center for Sustainable Development. Despite being an atheist myself, I can see the potential religion has in shaping opinions and driving climate action, which is why I was keen to have Yonatan on the show.
Yonatan takes us through his journey from growing up in California to living in Israel, where he leads an organisation that bridges the gap between religion and ecology. We discuss how spiritual teachings can work hand-in-hand with modern technology to tackle climate change effectively.
In this episode, we cover:
* The role of faith communities in promoting ecological sustainability
* Highlights from the Faith Pavilion at COP28
* Practical examples of faith-based environmental initiatives
* The importance of ethical consumption and sustainable living
Join us as we explore how ancient spiritual wisdom can complement modern climate solutions. Whether you’re religious or not, this discussion offers valuable insights into addressing the climate crisis.
