He noted that despite differences in religions, all people are united by a common responsibility for preserving the planet and promoting the development of humanity.

According to Hasanov, interreligious dialogue is very important for solving environmental crises.

"Some believe that environmental protection is not, in fact, a matter of faith. However, I am convinced that interreligious dialogue is extremely important, since environmental crises affect national, economic and cultural borders, affecting all societies. Our planet is the common heritage of all mankind," he said.
