Finding that balance, and that balance, again, is really different for different people. It's terribly damaging and you can also see where it provides opportunity. A lot of people break it down to The Old Days of the industrialization and wanting to create people who can really work in that economy.
Is our current education system failing us when it comes to climate change? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Force of Nature', Clover Hogan dives into the intersection of education and eco-anxiety. She kicks things off with Joe Brindle, the passionate founder of the Teach the Future campaign, who sheds light on why climate education has been so limited. Is it a mere oversight or a deliberate attempt to keep awareness low?
You'll hear from voices around the globe who are grappling with eco-anxiety and pushing for better educational resources on this critical issue. Leslie Madema, head of learning at Green School International, joins the conversation to share what an education system focused on sustainability looks like in practice. The discussions highlight the flaws in traditional education, which often prioritises individual success over community well-being.
By the end of this episode, Hogan reflects on the power of stories and beliefs in shaping our mindset and the vital role individual actions play in creating positive change. If you're curious about how education can be a powerful tool in combating eco-anxiety and fostering a generation of climate-conscious leaders, this episode is a must-listen.
