What I Write About

My Approach

The most powerful environmental education happens when we trust young people to lead, provide them with tools and support, and step back to let them discover their own capacity for creating change.

Eddie believes that effective environmental education must balance scientific literacy with emotional resilience, helping young people develop both the knowledge and confidence needed to address complex sustainability challenges. His approach emphasizes student autonomy, collaborative problem-solving, and celebration of incremental progress.
