I have had one of the best experiences of learning and enjoying a class in the ENVR 430 class and it far exceeded my expectations. In this class we leanred about intertwined and complex issues that exist, preventing us from reaching a sustainable future and we were able to learn more about the systematic changes the governments and the individual changes we can make to move towards the goal. My value is transparency, and sustainability. And I envision a world where we tackle the problem of sustainability collectivley and as a globe. In addition we work together to make systematic changes by implementing many policies and holding govenrmetns and influencial companies accoutable to follow the policies and create change. I also envision a world where sustainable innovative technologies are supported and become new practices. As for ineterventions and solutions, I will be implementing the individual changes we learned in class in my daily life, and one step is hosting the workshop in a highschool about overconsumerism, I will also be more mindful of what I buy and the businesses I support. I leanred how to communicate and form hard conversations with others and also share what I have learned with others. I also leanred that there is so much we can do as an individual, with what we decide to support. Overall it has been a great experience and I learned a lot.

Great post! I love the interventions you mentioned and your take-aways. I really resonate with everything you have said. It was a fantastic class!
Great summary of the course Matin! Its so encouraging reading these posts and feeling surrounded my empowered individuals.
You mention implementing policies for governments and companies, could you give an example of some of them that stood out to you? I would love to hear!
I'm glad you had a great experience too! I think that the envisioning segments of this class were such a great exercise. I really like your interventions and solutions in the individual changes for your personal life and its our job to popularize it.
Hi Matin! I agree, there were so many great takeaways from this course. Hopefully we can build on these and continue moving towards a sustainable future.
What a lovely reflection, Matin!! I agree that this is one of the best learning experiences I've ever had :) Thank you for all the attention you pay to details in our group project. I'll miss hearing your perspectives every Friday <3
Hi Matin! I agree - I'm also trying to be more mindful of what I buy to prevent overconsumption!
Great post Matin! I also think I will be trying to create change on my part as well.
It's great to hear that you had an enjoyable experience in ENVR 430 Matin! There is much to be hopeful of and individual action can have a great impact on the state of our world. I especially think teaching high school students about sustainability is a super important step in making the world a better place.
Amazing reflection Matin! I really love your reflection on being mindful at how your individual actions can impact systemic changes. I've enjoyed hearing you share your insights in class. Keep up the good work!
I agree I also had a great experience with this class!
I'm glad you had a good experience with this class!
I agree that systematic change is required so that policies change.
Hi Matin, thanks for sharing! I agree that this course has taught us many changes that can help lead us to a more sustainable future, both on the individual and broader levels. I also like how you mentioned transparency - I think this is one of the main things that needs to be improved so that we can collectively achieve our environmental goals.
