Indeed.
In my own view a pronounced eco/environmentalism was a marked characteristic of Celtic Christianity, and was lost with its passing.
Having said that, it must be balanced by the fact that science is by far the bigger villain, the 'Enlightenment' believed that through science man could free himself from the perverse grasp of nature, and determine his own destiny. The 17th/18th centure is the root of the present situation.
On the other hand, religion has always thrived in rural communities.
Religion tried to take on science, of course, and failed. With that failure both humanity and the planet suffered a grevious blow.
So I would say a human responsibility - and one in which a religious society did more to fulfill its obligation than the secular.
