In this final module we will learn about innovations with sustainability as a key motivator. How can modern technology and ideas help create a regenerative world and solve the climate emergency?
For this research article select an innovation/regenerative solution and/or partnership that you would like to feature and share with your classmates. Be sure to link it to 1 or 2 Global Goals and connect it to your own life and how you are inspired by these ideas, and can potentially use them going forward as a change agent for a regenerative future! For this Discussion Board I’d like you to think about the world you want to live in as an adult. What innovations are you excited about? How can your own change agent skills allow you to partner with others to build a sustainable and regenerative world? Please share how you might incorporate your sustainability knowledge in the field you plan to go into after you graduate? How can your skills contribute to your own community? What worries you and what excites/inspires you? Share ideas and inspiration.
All of the same article research guidelines apply. Have fun with your research, this one is all about inspiration and motivation.
