so much
I learned so much and the course was the right place to start to learn about environmental policy and sustainability.
This course was a great intro to many different aspects of sustainability and I learned so much.
I learned so much about sustainability and feel that I now have the tools to be critical about media news pieces about the environment.
Thank you so much to Dr Tomkin and Illinois University for such a great course!
I learned so much.
Learnt so much and its helped me understand what i as an individual can do as well to live a more sustainable life as well as ease my worry about us as humanity being doomed.I found the way the questions were asked got me confused at times and that is where i struggled my only critic.I am so grateful for this opportunity to learn this course and being allowed to extend my course deadlines a bit further due to work commitments and still be able to pass I am really happy.Thank you.I will most certainly be looking for more courses to start soon and continue to follow my passion.The videos were great and so informative.
