you have two opening style tags instead of an opening and a closing:

you need to use

<body>
  <style>
      h1 {
       color: green;
       }
   </style>
   <h1>nick</h1>
</body>

instead of 

<body>
  <style>
      h1 {
       color: green;
       }
   <style>
   <h1>nick</h1>
</body>

The code you have looks correct. But here is the full code for you to check. I just passed it with what is below.

    <body>
      <style>
        h1 {
          color: green;
        }
      </style>
      <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
    </body>
