I have very much enjoyed learning this course. It has covered major environmental challenges faced by the Popular Asian countries of China, Japan and India. It touches upon the core environmental issue like (in case of India), how the environmental pollution could affect most adversely, the lowest rung of a given strata of population due to the practice of "purity and pollution" propagated by caste system. Similarly, the course has touched upon the subtle issue like how environment is perceived and has been portrayed by novelists, poets, landscape artists in the present time in relation to the earlier period. The course has done justice by giving equal emphasis to discuss both the complicated and subtle issues related to the theme "Asian Environmental Humanities: Landscapes in Transition". Wish Coursera would be a platform to enlighten millions of the people who are eager to learn and know such hidden knowledge!

This was a fantastic introduction to the intricate notions of Environmental Humanities. As a philosopher, this course has widened my views on landscapes and further enhanced my perception of interconnectedness. Thank you for a comprehensive, enlightening and wonderful course!

This was an excellent introduction to the Environmental Humanities in Asia. The combination of case studies and theory was outstanding. My only recommendation is to include more Southeast Asian content. Borneo was only mentioned briefly.

It is a very interesting and insightful approach to the narrative on environmentalism in Asia, with a holistic approach that covers philosophy, politics, sociology and area studies. I really enjoyed studying these topics, which expanded my knowledge and interest to further read and watch materials on this issue.

The course was very helpful as it showcased how cultural, aesthetic and affective components can enhance environmental awareness and how these elements when incorporated into grass root movements can effectively counter and resist the current tendencies of environmental destruction.

Very Good Course highlighting the importance of Environmental Humanities in today's needs to protect our Mother Earth. A perfect mix of art, history, culture, religion, facts, society, and environment. Lovely Instructor Dr. Andrea, who helps us to understand the weights of such awareness in the present scenario.

I am happy that finally I have submitted it.But, I think rather than political issues, We could have discussed more about the eco-sustainability. Otherwise, It was a great experience. I am grateful to Coursera to give me a better platform to learn more effectively.

This course is far beyond 5 stars. It approaches the ideas for creating a truly new human/earth relationship that is the basis for an ecological civilizatin and a shared future for humanity. I have taken many Coursera courses and this course is by far not only the most engagin, but also the most challenging. This approach, linking various media elements including poetry and films, history and religious elements, is truly extraordinary and unique. I am the Dean of United Nations Non-governmental representatives over 40 years and this approach is only matched by the approach of the American Teilhard Association in its Yale Coursera offerings, which are fine ancillaries to this course. Professor Dr. Riemenschnitter is a great instructor. I would only suggest more modules on the art historical narrative, it is most engaging, as is the Swiss garden worth a second unit.
