George Bellas Greenough FRS FGS (18 January 1778 – 2 April 1855) was a pioneering English geologist. He is best known as a synthesizer of geology rather than as an original researcher. Trained as a lawyer, he was a talented speaker and his annual addresses as founding president of the Geological Society of London were influential in identifying and guiding contemporary geological research. He also courted controversy, after using his presidential address in 1834 to cast aspersions on a paper on great earthquakes by Maria Graham. Greenough advocated an empirical approach to the early science; his scepticism of theoretical thinking courted controversy amongst some contemporaries, especially his doubts of the usefulness of fossils in correlating strata. He compiled a geological map of England

Juriste de formation, c'était un bon orateur et ses discours annuels en tant que président et fondateur de la Geological Society of London ont tracé le programme de la géologie naissante. Il déchaîna d'ailleurs la controverse en égratignant dans son discours inaugural de 1834 l'article de Maria Graham sur les tremblements de terre. Greenough était partisan d'asseoir la géologie sur des bases empiriques ; son scepticisme envers les théories, entre autres sur l'utilité des fossiles pour dater les formations géologiques, suscita l'incompréhension parmi ses contemporains. Il a produit des cartes géologiques de l'Angleterre et du pays de Galles, publiées en 1820.

In 1798 ging hij aan de Universiteit van Göttingen rechten studeren. Nadat hij colleges van Johann Friedrich Blumenbach bezocht raakte hij geïnteresseerd in natuurwetenschappen en gaf zijn studie in de rechten op. Hij studeerde mineralogie aan de , waar Abraham Gottlob Werner zijn leraar was. Daarna reisde hij door delen van Europa en werkte aan het Royal Institution als scheikundige.
