About Laura Myers

Laura is an award winning math teacher with over 30 years of teaching experience. In 2017 she started to incorporate climate change into her math classes and inspired her students to build a greenhouse, start a food forest and then go on to create the Climate Action Team. This led to Hampton High becoming a platinum Eco School.

Laura was trained as a Climate Reality Leader through the Climate Reality Project and in 2020, she started teaching Environmental Science 120.

In 2022, she was awarded the 2022 Gaia Champion Teacher Award for excellence in climate action and youth empowerment.

In June of 2022, she decided to retire from classroom teaching and made climate change education her primary focus when she joined Learning for a Sustainable Future as an environmental educational consultant. She helps high school teachers incorporate climate action and the Sustainable Development Goals across the curriculum.
