This first course begins the learner’s journey of discovery into the climate crisis. We begin with an exploration of the science, including the human contribution to the crisis. We will develop a multi-faceted framework into which all solutions will be organized. Our first solution will focus on societal transformation and the leadership role that each of us can play in solving the climate crisis.
