Abstract

Throughout history, Africa environment has encountered different and difficult environmental mess such as climate change, biodiversity, over-population, pollution, deforestation, accumulated refuse, clean water shortage, e.t.c. and there has been questions about whether man has any right to take care of his ecology. Should people continue with the destruction of the ecology they are supposed to cherish, care for, keep and develop modalities for a better environment? The role of the church towards environmental maintenance has also been questioned. The aim of this paper therefore, is to examine from the Scriptures the theological basis for caring for creation and how they could be applied in Nigeria, in Africa and the world at large, knowing that the world's ecology is in a mess. The paper will also proffer suggestions, solutions or measures to be taken in order to avoid further destruction of the ecology in Nigeria and indeed African.
