Since 1990, the world has lost 178 million hectares of forest, significantly impacting the Earth's atmosphere, as trees and soil store about 45% of carbon on land. The need for a deeper understanding of sustainable practices to protect the planet has never been more urgent.

This course provides an introduction to the principles of sustainable development, community and energy management, and the social responsibility of businesses in promoting sustainability. Learners will also explore waste management, sustainable transport, and how to implement sustainability practices, including zero waste, in their own settings.
