What Is Green Atheism?
There are various documented forms of Atheism and the words Atheism and Humanism can, in most cases, be interchanged. Atheists believe that a Creator or Higher Power definitely does not exist. A Humanist or Earthist may object to the teaching of religions and become knowledgible of facts that tend to show that God may not exist.
To be 'Green' is, to list a few attributes, being concerned with the protection of the natural environment and to adapt one's own lifestyle by reducing energy consumed, avoiding activities which cause pollution, recycling waste whenever possible, making environmentally friendly consumer choices, living closer to nature and aligning oneself to a Green political position.
Earthism is an attempt to combine these two disciplines in the duel objectives of the prevention of environmental destruction to our planet and the discovery of a way to replace the devisive effect of religion with a unifying non-religious philosophical system.
The Earthist Society is formed as a starting point in which people can be brought together and a tangible identity for this worldview can be forged.
