Abstract
Abstract This article clarifies essential concepts and describes what the actual ecological crisis is about, based on the model of planetary boundaries from Stockholm University. Thereupon it is explained to what an extent the perception of this crisis has increased in statements by the Roman Catholic and Lutheran Churches. How the ecological crisis is mirrored in substantial practical theological publications is demonstrated in an overview on the basis of three pertinent monographs on religious education. Then the focus lies on the resulting task of Education for Sustainable Development and on the question of its potential religious contours. Furthermore, relevant empirical studies on ecological awareness and education are presented.
