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).
Nicolas, when he is not spinning his vinyl discs at 33.3rpm, is rolling the scientific material of the Climate Academy forward. He is passionate about soil, Ecology & Geology, and has grounded the different programmes of the Academy in a rich and firm pedagogical structure.
François Jourde has worked as a philosophy teacher in upper secondary schools in France and Belgium. He now works in the field of digital education, education for sustainable development and the professional development of teachers in a European context. His passion: team synergies!
As a Cambridge Geography graduate, Jules has specialised in examining how climate change affects the cryosphere, biosphere and atmosphere, and how that plays out for global societies on an intersectional level. His particular interest? How to bring this into the public view with impact and traction.
Sara, a cum laude graduate in natural sciences, with a focus on ecology, biodiversity, and environmental conservation, is a passionate advocate for the natural world and a determined fighter against climate change. Recognising the climate crisis’ urgency, she is eager to promote the CA expansion.
