本文針對當前的環境危機與宗教的反省和實踐力量之間，是否存在一種較好的解釋模式；而所謂的交遇，實則指向一種共同普世性的匯聚與架構，它是藉由羅斯頓對自然價值理論與人性能力的反省，以及佛教環境倫理學之緣起論根據，所形構出之有效的環境實踐脈絡。本文分為三項主要內容：羅斯頓環境倫理學與宗教、佛教徒環境實踐的基礎，以及兩者在當前的環境實踐中能夠提出的有效指引。對於羅斯頓的環境倫理學與宗教的關係之論述，主要是從其自然價值系統論來檢視與宗教之間的關係，以及人的宗教能力在環境實踐中的角色。佛教徒環境實踐的基礎則是針對建立在緣起論的環境倫理學理論是否能夠作為有效的環境實踐之基礎；最終是透過羅斯頓的環境哲學，以及佛教環境倫理學共同形構出一種更具普世性的環境倫理。

I will address whether there is a suitable illustrative mode in religion which can connect both the current environmental crisis and contemporary environmental practice. What called intersection is meant that a framework has been constructed by Holmes Rolston III and Buddhist environmental ethics. There are three main points in this article: Rolston's environmental ethics and religion, the foundation of Buddhist environmental practice, and an operative guideline integrating both for the present day. Rolston's environmental ethics, explained from the approach of the theory of natural values, aims to disclose what the original relation between environmental ethics and religion is. Rolston identifies a human being as a ＂religious agent＂. The foundation of Buddhist environmental practice is based on dependent origination. I will reflect on whether this foundation is a stable one or not. In conclusion, a more universal environmental ethic can take shape.
