In the Bible we find, in the "book of Genesis", two accounts of creation, which refer to two experiences, two different cultural and theological traditions. The Synoptic reading of the tracks offers the possibility of a deep reflection on what are the concepts "of creation such as universe and of creation such as making" and the role of the man in the creation with its functions of guardian and manager. It also provides the opportunity to assess the character and the meaning of human action, which is always characterized by ethical reference. It turns out the idea that man's relation to the world is a constitutive element of human identity, the result of a relationship that began as a deep relationship between Creator and creature. This ratio, deeply troubled allowed in "modern era to record a growing ability to transformative intervention of man. The aspect of the conquest and exploitation of resources became predominant and invasive, and came to threaten today 's hospitable environment; the environment as a "resource" risks threatening the environment as "home". This showed that the balance between man and the environment reached a critical point" (John Paul II, 1997). This fracture is followed by a dynamic and anthropocentric vision, which can help strengthen the concept and practice of sustainability, which must constantly seek to achieve and accomplish the common good, which "set of social conditions which allow both individual members to the community, to reach their fulfillment more fully and more easily" (Gaudium et Spes, 26, 1966). Then, the social doctrine is looking to pursue three objectives: to found the motivation, to direct through the social living standards and to guide the consciences in to the creation of new life styles (Centesimus Annus, 53, 1991). This is to "denounce" and to "announce": to denounce to defend the balance between man and the world and to announce a global vision of man and of humanity (Populorum Progressio, 13, 1967). Starting point and hermeneutical method is the training that is not so much passive assimilation of facts and cultural traditions, but to accustom the mind to become active, competent and responsible critical of the complexity of the world (Nussbaum M., 2013, p. 35).
