A major Baha’i ecological project is the landscaping of their world centre in Haifa. A series of gardens, terraces and fountains run from the foot to the crest of Mount Carmel. The project offers a reflection of the spiritual principles that must be applied to world problems if humanity is to create a truly peaceful world. For more information see the Baha’i on-line newsletter, ‘One Country’, ‘Reshaping God’s holy mountain’
Examples of Baha’i development projects are described on the Baha'i web-site bahai.org.
Background information on Baha’i ecology is available on the One Country on-line newsletter Environment Stories section.
