The General Theological Seminary (GTS) is partnering with GreenFaith, a leading interfaith environmental coalition, and the Green Seminary Initiative (GSI) to create a new environmental certification program specifically designed for seminaries and theological schools.
GTS is a charter member among a small, select group of pilot seminaries and theological schools that will help GreenFaith and GSI define the new certification program’s standards and procedures during 2012.
“General’s partnership with GreenFaith is a further step in our commitment not only to teaching environmental theology and stewardship, but also to being increasingly green ourselves,” said GTS President Lang Lowrey. “We aim to be a leader among seminaries in caring for God’s creation.”
