I also feel like I've left this course feeling better prepared to tackle real environmental issues in the world and have a renewed sense of empowerment in making a difference!

I love your reflection! I feel like a lot of this resonates with how I feel after finishing the course too.

I also loved the pre-class work documentaries! What a refreshing change :)

Love this Natalie! It was such a pleasure working with you this term :)

I love how you've learnt to tie in your visions and values to these ecological problems and I love how you've learnt to approach these problems in a different way.

Thank you for embedding that link Philip! I loved your post.

Thank you so much for your vulnerable post and for discussing geriatric depression Maia!

What a great post that recognizes how ill-prepared we all are for the realities of death.

Hi Yaxi, thank you for your very vulnerable post! I also grew up in a culture that really respects their elders, so I appreciate your point of view on this topic.

I love the idea of opt-out organ donation systems rather than opt-in ones!!

I completely agree that educating people is so necessary and that we often act automatically without thinking about the consequences of our actions (like how you mentioned we throw plastic packaging to the side).

Hi Ari - I completely agree that mindfulness and awareness surrounding the true nature behind plastic recycling is the first way to make change for the future!

It definitely is a hard pill to swallow that a lot of plastics aren't actually recycled. I really enjoyed what you envision for the future!

Hi S - Thank you for sharing your experience! I didn't know that about biodegradable waste purity.

What a succinct and powerful post! I too hope for a world where single-use items are fully biodegradable.

Hi Natalie, what a great post! Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Hi Nadia, your post resonates strongly with me. I also think increasing taxes on the mega-rich is necessary moving forward.

What a thoughtful post, and great idea about the app!

Hi Maria, I completely agree about having stronger laws to prevent various tax-break loopholes that billionaires take advantage of. Such a great point!

I love the future that you envision where our consumption will not be affected by advertisements!
