Becoming Green Earth People

Cláudio Carvalhaes is an author, teacher, ritual-leader, playwright, and all-round creative soul. He describes himself as an Earth-thinker. He leads by example, sharing the stories of his life where he learned how to live more closely with the natural world and where he unlearned ways of being that separated him from Mother Earth. Cláudio has spent his life as a student of the natural world. He works tirelessly to create a green Earth community for his children. He invites his students in the classroom and through his books to consider ways that they can orient and re-orient their lives to be closer to the Earth. He invites us to consider the social, emotional, embodied, and spiritual ways that connect us to all of the natural beings around us, even in built environments. Cláudio was born in São Paulo, Brazil, teaches at Union Theological Seminary in New York City, and lives with his family in central Pennsylvania. This is a public episode.
