I wanna start off saying I'm 19. So this is the sort of career path I wanna go down. I wanna learn about sustainability in general. Right now I'm focusing on permaculture. I can't seem to find a school out there that actually teaches this stuff in depth, down to the science and everything. I'm finding a lot of places that are doing the whole hippy thing where it seems like a lot of time is spent talking about our relationship with mother earth and whatnot and then you talk about things along those lines and you have some hands on training and some lessons as well. And hey thats great, but its not what I'm looking for. I want facts, I want research, I want to learn this stuff down to the marrow. I dont want a one week work shop where I learn a lot but I'm left a little confused and theres still a lot more to learn and my budgets broken. The thing is, I think this stuff is very important. I think we can start restoring our eco systems and fixing up a lot of the messes we've made with permaculture. And I'd like to be able to do that. But its looking like I'm gunna have to to school for ecology or something along these lines and then learn permaculture? I wanna be credible and respected. Like how do I go about this and where do I go?
If anybody knows of any schools out there with some real in depth educating going on then please please let me know. This stuff is really my passion, I really wanna find a place where I can learn it all.
If you know any places outside of Canada or the US then please mention them as well. I'd love to learn about them!
Thanks all! <3
