A public webinar open to members and non-members alike, exploring a deceptively simple and deeply unsettling question: Is the Earth alive? This conversation follows a talk by Craig Holdrege, co-founder of The Nature Institute and a leading thinker in Goethean science and phenomenological inquiry. In the talk, Craig unfolds his current research into what it might mean—experientially, ethically, and scientifically—to ask whether the Earth can be understood as a living being. The talk originally opened a three-day course hosted by our partner organisation Escola Brasil, (escolaschumacherbrasil.com.br) where participants explored the question collectively through embodied, observational, and reflective practices. Bia Tadema, Director of Escola Brasil and RinA Fellow, found the talk profoundly moving in its careful, phenomenological articulation of the question. Together, we felt it deserved a wider, shared space for listening and reflection—hence this webinar. It is required to watch Craig’s talk in advance and come ready to share what stirred, unsettled, or shifted for you. 👉 Talk: Is the Earth Alive? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBgr0EUemWk 👉 Craig Holdrege: https://www.natureinstitute.org/ We’d love to hear what you notice, question, or carry forward from it.
