Tom Rhoads, Exploring the Intersection of Environmental Education and Economics
In this episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Tom Rhoads, an economist and professor at Towson University.
Dr. Rhoads shares his transition from sports economics to environmental economics and his research integrating economics into environmental education.
Dr. Rhoads explains that his interest in environmental education began about five years ago when he noticed a shift in the demographics of his class, with more environmental science and studies majors than economics majors. This led him to change his approach to teaching environmental economics, focusing more on the environment and finding the economics within it.
