Rabbi David Rosen, International Director of Interreligious Affairs at AJC, posits that resistance among some Jews to embracing environmental values is due, not to a lack of rabbinic sources stating as much, but to the centuries of being alienated from their home land and having to cope with historical national hardships. Rabbi Rosen states the importance of once again learning to develop a sense of global responsibility.
