The link that I liked best was Module 5: Systems; Introduction to System Theory. The video, The Story of Stuff provided me with a great summery of important facts concerning global warming. Throughout the semester, I learned a lot while reading and watching the assigned modules, and this video tied it all together. It was simple and clear.

The assignment that I enjoyed the most was my group project. Helping my community by participating in the South Point Beach Clean Up was very rewarding for me. It was also a great experience to work with others and as a team toward a common goal.

The readings that I got the most out of was from Beyond You and Me. This book provided wonderful stories of individuals who were on or completed their journey through the concept of global warming. I found it interesting that they shared personal interviews, personal experiences and personal solutions concerning global warming.

The project that I liked the best was Today, Not Tomorrow and Team Green’s paper on Organic Gardening, Farming and Our Ecosystem. I enjoyed my group project because I was able to applied what I learned throughout the semester about global warming and put it in to action. My group stepped out of the box and took part in a community event that was beneficial to the environment.

Team Green’s research paper was motivating. I found the essay very interesting and informative because of the information that they found and the conclusions that they were able to make. The food I eat, where it comes from and how it is processed is very important to me, so this research helped be to better understand the health benefits of organic gardening. Not only does organic gardening provide a healthy diet but also supports sustainability and our earth.

The most important thing that learned in this course is that there are so many organizations, agencies, communities and individuals that are uniting to help this current situation of global warming. It is amazing how much research has been conducted, how much people are willing to speak about their knowledge and experience relating to global warming and also the Ecovillage communities that are staring a knew way of life. Having this kind of support will definitely help our journey to a better environment.
