Focus Years: 2008 | Country: United States
Synopsis:
In the mountains of Kentucky and West Virginia, today's mining practices are literally removing the tops of mountains to extract coal to feed American power plants. The natural environment is being decimated, while burning the coal fuels global warming. Evangelical Christians have participated in an interfaith tour to bear witness to this devastation and to begin organizing against the practices that are destroying the land and polluting the waters of Appalachia. "Renewal" is the first feature-length documentary series to capture the vitality of America's religious-environmental movement. Offering a profound message of hope, in eight stories, "Renewal" shows people inspired by their diverse spiritual and religious convictions, being called to re-examine what it means to be human and how we live on this planet. Stories include Evangelical, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist and several interfaith grassroots initiatives - portraits of people working to become better stewards of the environment. "Renewal" provides an inspiring account of how religions today can be a powerful force for good in the world by bringing people together through a common concern for the earth.
