Abstract

This qualitative study utilizes a document analysis approach to construct a theoretical framework for a global environmental ethic based on the Noahic Covenant in Genesis 9. The research aims to systematically examine the covenant's theological themes specifically God's commitment to all creation and the establishment of human stewardship and their capacity to provide a universal moral foundation that transcends cultural and religious divides. Through critical analysis of biblical texts, theological commentaries, and international ethic declarations, the study investigates the practical implications for Christian education. It concludes by proposing integrative pedagogical strategies that connect natural science and environmental responsibility with this biblically-grounded, global ethic, aiming to foster a generation of scientifically-literate and morally-driven ecological stewards.
