Abstract
Interreligious ecotheological praxis is urgent and most needed as a real form of dialogue between science and religions to overcome the increasingly severe current ecological crisis. This paper focuses on interreligious ecotheological praxis to maintain the integrity of creation and environmental sustainability. The aim is to explain the meaning of interreligious ecotheological praxis and its urgency in protecting the Earth and the vulnerable. To achieve this goal, this study qualitatively examines the grassroots practice of caring for the Earth and the vulnerable by Muslims, Catholics, and Sedulur Sikep in Pati and Rembang Regencies, Central Java, Indonesia. The results provide a new reference on interreligious ecotheological praxis for the Earth care movement, especially from the perspective of Islam, Catholicism, and Sedulur Sikep. This work suggests everyone move together in facing and overcoming the ecological crisis that befell the Earth and defending as well as protecting the vulnerable people most affected by environmental destruction.
