If there's a course that teaches the basics about sustainability, it's undoubtedly Dr. Jonathan Tomkin's Introduction to Sustainability course which teaches about sustainability in such a simplistic manner.

Lecturer Jonathan Tomkin was very clear on his delivery, The pace of the course is just nice and I like the references for additional readings. I would love to have at least one lecturer- graded assignment.

The course was well-structured and insightful. It shows that environmental conservation cannot be a stand-alone discipline and it has to be consulted with economics for the greater good.
