Check out Unitarian Universalism! There are no official scriptures, but respect for the interdependent web of life is one of our core principles. Also many UU congregations celebrate pagan/Earth-based holidays if that's your cup of tea (results may vary based on the specific congregation's members). We've absolutely worshiped the trees on the congregation property and put them into a conservation easement.
This speaks to me somewhat. How does tie together if you're vegan too? The principles read pretty human-focused.
There is indeed a movement within the UU world to promote veganism/plant-based diets. I've personally been involved with this a bit, but it is not ubiquitous yet. There's certainly a spectrum of priorities for different congregations and people within them. UU Ministry for Earth is a national scale group within UUism working on these issues; there's local/regional groups as well. UU congregations in my experience are open to people starting new initiatives within the congregation to advance their passions in ways that are more impactful than working individually. If you're interested in exploring more, I'd suggest checking out a few congregations in your area and seeing what their vibe is. Many have virtual services in the post-COVID era so it's possible to check them out without even showing your face if that's desired.
