They call me Ophiolite. Funny name, I know. Comes from the Greek word for “snake stone,” thanks to my greenish, scaly look. There’s a lot hidden in that name. I’ve lived a life that most rocks can only dream of and this is my story.

What if Earth isn’t just a planet, but a living system? From oxygen-making microbes to the Gaia Hypothesis, this blog explores how life and geology have co-evolved to create the atmosphere we breathe — and why understanding this deep connection matters more than ever. Join me as I trace this planetary story from ancient oceans to the high-altitude landscapes of Ladakh, and share how The Neev Project is bringing Earth’s hidden histories to life.
