Description
In this course, we will look at some of the prevalent environmental myths and try to learn the true facts. Why it is important?
This is essential because in this era of information, we often get a lot of data, and we get lost in it. A lot of environmental myths are prevalent and hence we are getting devoid of true understanding and hence true solutions for the problems.
To find the solution it is very essential to understand the problem in its entirety. As said by Systems Thinker Peter Senge, ‘Today’s problems are the Yesterday’s solutions’. This statement always makes me think about the problems we all are facing in the current times, from pollution to population, from plastic pollution to degradation of ecosystems, from increased lifestyle diseases to psychological issues we are facing, all are somewhat result of some kind of solutions we created to avoid some problems in the past. The hastily made decisions or policies formed with short-term narrow thinking have led us to newer and increasing problems.
These questions from the course will definitely help you to truly understand the environmental issues and thought-provoking action items are also shared, that you can implement in your day-to-day life to start for the environment- Nature conscious life.
I hope this short course will help you to make your own informed choices about your own life, and potentially make tangible differences on a broader global scale as well!
