Abstract
Climate resilience is a strategy that needs to be reflected upon from an environmental ethics perspective as a cross-cutting issue in various scientific disciplines. An environmental ethical impulse is added to the explanation of the meaning of climate resilience and the identification of the disciplines that must necessarily be included in the discourse. The basic question is: can resilience be understood as a preserving or a creative process in the context of the „Great Transformation“? The impulse starts from Markus Vogt’s proposal in five conditions for resilience, here in connection with the concept of sustainability, and follows up with the question of the corresponding anthropological image of man and cultural dependencies. In theological ethics, it is important to note that climate resilience cannot be thought without an awareness of general vulnerability. This vulnerability should be assumed as the starting point for creativity. Secondly, it is important not to reinforce asymmetries in development policy issues, e. g. in the question of poverty reduction or food security. The constitution of the climate as a global common good is the third theological-ethical demand, following the encyclical Laudato Si of 2015. Finally, the fourth point is the capability for failure and the question of guilt.
