It's very easy to understand, and it's broken down into easy to digest/understand chunks. It's not overwhelming, that's why I found it enjoyable.

I really liked the high level details of it; including lots of links to studies, articles, and documentation. I think this abstraction was exactly what I was looking for.

Much needed information, both as an employee who is into software, and a citizen who understands climate change and GHG.

This course was well-prepared and informative. Every part of this course was theoretical and interesting, and had great author discussions based on ideas that were demonstrated.
