Green Faith and Earth Day with special guest Reverend Fletcher Harper

People of faith make up over 80% percent of the world’s population. Our religions teach us to care for the earth and each other; we seek to live by these values. Green Faith is helping to build resilient, caring communities and economies that meet everyone’s needs while protecting the planet. The era of conquest, extraction, and exploitation has given way to cooperation and community. We had a wonderful and informative conversation with our guest Rev. Fletcher Harper, who is the Executive Director of Green Faith, and he is a pioneer of the global religious environmental movement. Reverend Harper helps spearhead the faith-based fossil fuel divestment movement, organizes faith turnouts at major climate mobilizations, and is a co-founder of Shine, an international campaign that supports women and community-led renewable energy access initiatives in Africa and India. He is the author of GreenFaith: Mobilizing God’s People to Protect the Earth. For more information go to greenfaith.org.
