The Environmental Problem
Its Causes & Islam's Solution

Copenhagen - 29. Dhul Hidjah 1430 A.H. / 16. December 2009 CE

In relation to the ongoing debate on the climate and the increasing focus on the condition of the environment, Hizb ut-Tahrir in Denmark has issued a booklet titled "The Environmental Problem - Its Causes & Islam's Solution".

The booklet points out the cultural causes behind the incompetence of the Western capitalist states in solving the environmental problem. It highlights the major industrial countries' erroneous diagnosis and treatment of the environmental problem, and it clarifies that the solutions of the Western great powers practically serve the interests of their large industries at the expense of the environment. Furthermore, the booklet explains the Islamic view on the environment, as well as the way in which the institutions of the coming Islamic Khilafah-state will deal with the environmental problem.

The booklet, which exists in Danish as well as English and Arabic, has been distributed widely during the ongoing climate conference. It is possible to read or download the booklet at the following links:
