It was a good introduction of Sustainability. I am happy with the course material, I would just add some more optional reading on the topics, so if someone is interested they can get more knowledge. This course is good to have some basic understanding of the topics.

This course offers material to start investigating about the world of sustainability, to help society and our planet. The interviews, readings, hints of the teacher's explanations and the required tasks make you question things and wanting to dig deeper.

A very good course. I rated 4/5 because it is just a beginner level course. You can understand the stuff if you have baisc knowledge of basic sciences, but for people like me with professional degrees it somewhat primitive or a basic course.

Interesting as a first step to better understand the concepts of sustainability and greening the economy. It's however necessary to propose a second course that goes deeper in some of the key concepts.

I liked this course a lot, though sometimes the videos were kind of slow and my attention got disperse.

Good course with varied content and I very much liked the way it was build up (individual, business, cities, nations). Reason why I rated it 3 stars (only) is that the course was too easy - however I'm a sustainability professional. Maybe the word "introduction" can be taken into the title - as the course would serve as a good intro-course for practical application of sustainability.

Take so long mainly because of "assignment locked" problem. And the main cause of this problem (according to their words) is being their in summer holiday. But for me, it calls definitely "irresponsibility". So, 2 stars is enough for just content of the course.

There is not much new content to extract from the lectures if you lived in this world for more than 10 years. Electric cars are good, use deposit systems and print eco labes on products. Very boring unfortunately, I had high expectations. A lot of advertisement for Sweden, who are already doing great things towards sustainability. But I did not see any outlook on how we are going to save our planet by greening the economy. Often facts are mentioned but without any studies. very low amount of numbers, dates and facts, unfortunately very unscientific.

Much less technical than I had anticipated. Much more policy-driven. Disappointing.
