Title: Climate change tackles philosophy
Description: Philosophy and climate change
Speaker: Mr. Pye is a philosophy teacher and the philosophy department coordinator at EEB2. He is also an author and the founder of the Climate Academy.
From his Linkedin account:
I have taught Philosophy at the European School Brussels II since 2007.
Since 2011, I have worked closely with Michael Wadleigh (Oscar Winner, Director, 'Woodstock' 1970) and Birgit van Munster (DVM), a sustainability and climate change expert. All of our projects they together have been committed to bridging the gap between the science of sustainable development and public awareness.
The Climate Academy (est. 2011) for gifted and talented students hothouses their understanding sustainability through collaboration with leading figures in the field.
"Plato Tackles Climate Change" (2020) is the first in a series of publications that opens up both the classroom and the Academy to the wider world. This series of books: "No Common Sense", takes the greatest minds of the past (such as Nietzsche, Arendt, Descartes, Popper...) and gets them to expose the critical issues of sustainability that we face.
