“Geo Sapiens” literally means “Earth Wise.” But as an obvious play on “Homo sapiens,” it represents a new way of thinking about ourselves.

Explore a whole spectrum of scientific resources that shed light into the principles and functioning of Gaia. Books, articles, and links containing the most essential research on Gaia Theory.
“Geo sapiens” is a metaphor for thinking of ourselves as a seamless continuum of a living planet. It is a means to a “Gaia Paradigm” which seeks a healthy union between science and “cultural narrative.” Explore multiple perspectives about science and cultural narrative from great thinkers such as scientists, philosophers, and politicians.
Are you interested in a workshop or presentation inspired by “Geo sapiens” (the metaphor itself, the science of “Gaia Theory” or the “Gaia paradigm”)? Entrepreneurial Earth, LLC, founded by Martin Ogle, offers a range of educational programs for organizations, businesses, schools and community/public groups.
As Geo sapiens, we can enter a “Gaia Paradigm” – the confluence between scientific understandings of Earth as a living system with cultural understandings (ancient and new) of human society as a seamless continuum of that system.
