What do you want to get out of the course? What interests you about “green politics?” What do you want to explore?
After studying the environment and sustainable practices for the past three years, I am hoping this class will further inspire me. Because the course is not set up or graded as a normal lecture class, it excites me to see these teaching methods applied. I support the professors methods in which there are different methods to learning and real life application is one of the best.
I admit that I am a little confused as to what "green politics" really stands for and means. But after all, I guess that's what I hope to learn. I am interested in how our politics play a role environmentalism and vice versa. I feel that the two are strongly connected but lack support and acknowledgment. This is not a new problem, nor a small one that can be fixed overnight. But with a better education on these relationships will hopefully provide answers and ways to move forward.
I am also looking forward to working with Sustainable Carolina and their project teams. There we will be able to apply the class material and work with a group on actual problems we face on campus. While I am not yet sure which team I would like to be a part of, I am passionate about most of the different topics and projects. I hope that I will be able to help with the project and assist the members with problems that they will face.
