Matthew loves the classroom and enjoys the 360° views of reality that Philosophy provides. He thought he was quite well educated before he attended a lecture on Ecology, and suddenly understood the true dimensions of the climate crisis. Following the example of Plato, he set up an Academy (in 2011) to allow his students to see the bigger picture and respond to it.

The doors of the Academy are now open for anyone to join.

Matthew is also a writer and public speaker.
