DESCRIPTION:A talk about how thinkers from antiquity to today have examine
 d the notion of ‘the end of the world’.\n\nFrom the flood in the Hebre
 w Bible to our current climate crisis\, the end of the world has repeatedl
 y been nigh.\n\nHjördis Becker-Lindenthal\, Simone Kotva and Sophie Lunn-
 Rockliffe from the Faculty of Divinity will discuss how different thinkers
  from antiquity to today have conceptualised the notion of ‘the end of t
 he world’ in theological terms - from the idea that planetary death is a
  punishment sent from God for human sins or a self-wrought disaster brough
 t on by heedless consumption. Is the way the current climate debate is bei
 ng framed anything new? How do we know that the order of change in the nat
 ural world is now critical?\n\nHosted by the Cambridge Inter-Faith Program
