What is eco-justice?

"Eco-justice occurs where human beings receive sufficient sustenance and build enough community to enjoy harmony with God, each other, and nature, and where the rest of creation is appreciated not simply as useful to humanity but as valuable to God."

Deiter T. Hessel, "Preaching for Creation's Sake: A Theological Framework" in For Creation's Sake, Geneva Press, 1985, p. 115.
