<\/figure>\nIn Isaiah 55, there is a wonderful description of trees clapping their hands, of mountains bursting into song, of plants and geological features leading humans into joy and peace. When looking for environmental solutions it is important that we consider the intrinsic value of plants, of landscapes and of non-human animals. Doing so will also lead us into joy and peace, pointing us to the intersectionality of climate justice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
