About me

I have more than ten years' experience in the energy sector and spent two decades studying and teaching politics and environmental issues, specializing in energy, ecology, biodiversity, and the language of politics. I continue to teach and edit (and write) on clean technology, most notably on the promise and limitations of the so-called hydrogen economy. I am especially keen to work on projects related to ethology, evolutionary biology, indigenous knowledge and conservation practices, invasive species management, and rewilding. 



I came to focus on the green economy after working through a PhD on politics and language at the University of Cambridge, England. My doctoral work examined the role of power in what Wittgenstein referred to as "language games." I still have a love for words, but they're no substitute for the soil and water and seeds of this beautiful planet, and the many creatures who inhabit it. Let me leave you with a shot of two of my favourites, Tulo and Haemish, who generally keep me well grounded.
