About Us

We believe that Earth and all people are sacred — and at risk. Guided by our core values of spirituality, inclusivity, compassion, justice, and courage, GreenFaith mobilizes faith communities worldwide to protect the planet and build a just future.

The most vulnerable among us – who’ve done nothing to create the climate crisis – and the planet are suffering.

Governments, extractive industries, and financial institutions continue to destroy the fabric of life. Around the globe, local GreenFaith members and Circles are rising together to end the era of extraction and exploitation and to create bold transformation.

The Mission

Because the Earth and all people are sacred and at risk, GreenFaith is building a worldwide, multi-faith climate and environmental movement.

Together our members create communities to transform ourselves, our spiritual institutions, and society to protect the planet and create a compassionate, loving and just world.

Theory of Change

Around the globe, GreenFaith is building a multi-faith grassroots community through outreach events, contextualized eco-theology education and organizing/campaigning skills training.

These efforts empower our base to campaign against new fossil fuel/extractive projects and related financing and in support of a just transition, green jobs, and loss and damage commitments for climate-vulnerable regions.

We envision a world transformed, in which humanity in all its diversity has developed a shared reverence for life on Earth.

Religious and spiritual communities everywhere generate a moral awakening to the sacredness of Earth and the dignity of all people.

Together, we are building resilient, caring communities and economies that meet everyone’s needs and protect the planet. The era of conquest, extraction, and exploitation has given way to cooperation and community.

The good life is one of connectedness—with each other and all of nature. It is a world of flourishing life that replaces despair with joy, scarcity with shared abundance, and privilege with justly distributed power.
