David L. Haberman studies religion in India, focusing on how people worship the natural world—rivers, mountains, trees, and stones—as sacred beings. His recent work connects these devotional traditions to contemporary concerns, including how climate change is affecting sacred sites and reshaping religious practice. Much of his writing explores the relationship between humans, the environment, and religious meaning in Northern India, particularly in the land associated with the Hindu deity Krishna.
