Is a Judeo-Christian worldview the reason for ecological devastation?

"Medieval historian, Lynn White, published an essay in Science magazine in which he blamed the Judeo-Christian worldview for ecological devastation. And that got reprinted in [00:09:30] dozens and dozens of anthologies in environmental science used all over the world. He claimed that it's because of this verse that this verse, Christians and Jews interpreted as giving them total license to just abuse nature in anyway they wanted. Now, of course, you can go back through the whole history of pre-Christian rabbinic interpretation and post-Christ Christian interpretation of Genesis 1:28, and you never find that it's a complete caricature." -E. Calvin Beisner, Ph.D.
