    Course that all should see, expecially those still not conviced in climate change. Best analogy was driving toward cliff in the car and discussing which seat to take. We have this one Earth and we are behaving like we have several more in reserve.

    Hey Team, Kudos to your efforts. This course was immensely beneficial in enhancing my understanding of the current state of climate change. Publicly available information on this critical issue is often fragmented, contradictory, and perplexing. For instance, I've experienced climate anxiety when making routine decisions like purchasing milk or shampoo. The belief that individual actions are paramount can induce fear and confusion, particularly when choices are constrained. Parallelly, this notion has also limited our sense of responsibility towards climate preservation. Through this course, I've gained substantial insights into the condition of our planet and the significant steps required to effect meaningful change. Thank you for bringing this to us.
