Abstract
Schinkel examined this difficulty in a 2009 paper, concluding that, in the absence of more wholesale changes to underlying social structures, environmental educational efforts are unlikely to result in much change. This argument is an interesting one, and it caused us to examine environmental educational literature in a new light. If Schinkel is correct, and environmental educators are sometimes advancing proposals that would leave students in the untenable position of being “islands of sustainability,” one would expect to find in the literature a number of examples wherein scholars posited visions for environmental education that depend on coming generations being fundamentally superior to the current generation. This is exactly what one finds in reviewing recent thought on environmental education. Our expectations are, to use the technical term, intergenerationally unjust.2

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
