Amazing course for those who are total beginners or those with some knowledge of environmental law. The content is great, detailed but conceptual and the quizzes are a perfect challenge. Absolutely recommend this for anyone even slightly interested in learning more about any aspect of environmental law.

I've never taken any law or environmental class and this was a great introduction. We looked at environmental litigation in many areas of national and international law. My favorite was when the teacher used economics to explain the theory behind environmental law. Overall, a very chill and fun class!

Professor Hornstein was an amazing professor he kept me engaged and was a pleasure to learn from. He knew the subject matter very well and was able to teach the Environmental Law and Policy course very well. I learned a lot in this course because I wanted to learn about Environmental Law and Policy.

I'm so glad I took this course. I have studied environmental law before but the approach taken by Prof Hornstein is so refreshing. It is simple, clear and flows beautifully. Thank you so much for this opportunity and more so for keeping it free so that students like me can also learn from the best :)

Kudos to Professor Hornstein! I am able to fully grasp all the information about the course. The modules are very engaging and effective for easy learning. This is the course that I really enjoyed! Thank you to the team at UNC who made this all possible. I'm really glad I enrolled in this course! :)

The best course that I have ever had on Coursera. It goes along with a great pace, and sessions are not too long to lose you to distraction. Each session includes good amount of information which I think they are all useful for someone in the field. All in all, the course is designed perfectly. A+

I had the most amazing time learning, Professor Hornstein made this learning process such a joy, that I was almost in tears, when this course ended. Truly a joy being able to learn under such amazing professors. Thank you so much UNC and Coursera for this opportunity, could not be more grateful.

Excellent course and instructor! I've learned so much from this course not just on the existing environmental laws and policies but also its theoretical background. Thank you Coursera and the people who made this course possible and accessible to the people who wanted to protect the environment!

Great introduction to environmental law. Very well-structured. The case studies were helpful and crucial to understanding of the materials. Analysis and theory lectures are very interesting. Lecturer is knowledgeable and passionate about the matter. One of the best courses I've had on Coursera!

This Course was Exeptionally Well Explained, filled with examples and case readings, and I especially liked the research study in Week 6 as it allowed me to equip new resources! Mr.Hornstien is not boring at all! Infact his way of speaking and mid-video questions kept me engaged throughout !

This was a fantastic introduction to Environmental Law. The organization of the lessons and units is well thought out. You can tell that the instructor had a passion for teaching. I have already bought a book to increase my understanding of environmental law. Thank you Dr. Donald Hornstein.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course, and I really didn't think I would as I've never been too interested in law (I just wanted learn a bit more about how environmental law works as a conservation scientist). Its a great introduction thats easy to follow with an an amazingly engaging instructor.

I was very happy to complete this course , because we have learned a lot in environmental law . at the same time we have to fight for the problems that occur in the environmental as well as for the problems that do not arise. Thank you for the wonderful information provided in this course.

This course was the biggest surprise to me in all the courses that I've taken. This professor really makes this course an absolute gem. He is unusually good at making you understand the topic in the most deep and relevant way possible. Major kudos to this guy........ just unbelievable.

Highly Contemporary & Interesting Subject, and for sure, that would not only enhance anyone's Knowledge but also make him/her, aware of the latest Climate Crisis. Moreover, such lesson has been taught by extremely Sound & Competent Professor/s as well.

Professor Sir adopted such a wonderful approach to make us understand different concepts of environmental law and policy. And, also the various case laws of the American regime guided our way through. It was an amazing experience to have learned environmental law at such ease and comfort.

Very helpful for your understanding of environmental law, especially that of the United States. Even if its cases are focused mostly on policies the U.S, the course can be applied to the international level as well as for someone's understanding of national issues and decision-making.

Professor Hornstein is brilliantly easy to follow -- he walks you through "legalese" at a beginner's pace, apt for a college undergraduate-level. I particularly like his One-minute Lawyer videos, wherein he explains the case readings in a conversational style. Very good for reviewing.

I really loved this course, it helped give me a huge leap into environmental law and policy and has helped me see new avenues for working in this area that I was not aware of before. Thanks, Dr. Hornstein! This course has helped my professional education and career growth so much.

This course allowed me to discover the legal aspect of environmental protection which I had never considered before. It made me realize that without the help of the state, the environment is hard to protect against people who want to make the most profit out of it's exploitation.

The instructor of this course is an excellent personality! He is full of life. While dull lectures make easy courses tough, he has made this 'juiceless' topic more than interesting with his teaching style and variation in deliberation. This is an A-class course and a must-do one.

It's really helped my understanding on environmental law and policy. I often have questions on environmental law and policy but I couldn't really pinpoint the answer from a legal perspective. From this course, I easily understood about police power and common law implementation.

The course was laid out beautifully, with a steady build-up and excellent real life examples. You learn the fundamentals (and then some) without even realizing it. It's absolute magic! I've fallen in love with environmental law, and I wish Donald Hornstein taught more classes!

Exactly what I wanted - a course to help me make sense of the basics and give me the language and the tools I need to pursue a deeper understanding of several of the subtopics which are most applicable to my work.

And Bonus! Happy Prof = Happy Learning

I appreciate that :-)

It was a pleasure studying this course with Professor Don Hornstein. The knowledge he shared about environmental policies, law, protection and the entire structure of environmental studies is highly appreciated and will be implemented in the near future.
