Think someone should do something to save our planet from Climate Change?

The Earth is in a CLIMATE CRISIS, and needs you. Yes, YOU!! Right now, we are in the Emergency Room, and need to act quickly.


Our planet is heating up rapidly - over the last seven years, our planet has seen the hottest temperatures on record.


Take this Easy-to-understand STEP-BY-STEP course on Renewable Energy and Climate Change, if YOU want to help. 


Even the smallest things YOU DO can SAVE our planet!


But first, let's start with a ... 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fun Fact: Did you know ... the world is covered by around 70% water. But only around 2.5% is fresh, drinkable water (NatGeo).


and now a...

~~

Scary Fact: Did you know ... that animals (mostly COWS) contribute to global warming?!! Yeah, around 20% of all world's greenhouse gas emissions (methane) is BELCHED by 1.5 billion COWS! Over 40% of the farmland in the USA is used for grazing cattle. Just to bring meat to your dinner table.

One clever way to reduce the amount of methane produced by cows is to add seaweed to their feed!! Now that's clever.


~~

Fun Fact: Did you know ... that the Earth receives more energy from the sun in a single hour than the world uses in an ENTIRE year. Currently, we capture only 1% of the sun's energy to produce electricity!!!


Scary Fact: Because the world's oceans absorb about 30% of the CO2 that humans spew out, the oceans are now much more acidic. Together with a warmer ocean temperature has resulted in 50% of the world's Coral Reefs now EXTINCT, with the remaining living reefs expected to disappear in about 20-30 years!! Leaving behind green, slimy algae.


Scary Fact: 1% of global energy consumption is used to keep data stored in the cloud (i.e. stored in data centers) COOL!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After taking this course you will know where oil comes from, what coal is, what CO2 and Methane are and how they contribute to our warming climate.

You will have a unique and thorough understanding of the basics, terminology, concepts, and technologies to be proud of. Plus you'll receive a Certificate of Completion too.

I'll walk you through each lecture through a series of videos. With 30 lectures and 145 mins of videos, this course provides a comprehensive overview of:


    • Energy and Electricity

    • Climate Change and the Environment

    • Fossil Fuels

      • Coal

      • Natural Gas

      • Crude Oil

      • Alternative Fossil Fuels & Synfuels

      • The environmental costs of using Fossil Fuels

      • Energy Conservation & Renewables


    • Renewable Energy Technologies, including:

      • Biomass and Biofuels (innovative "Jatropha" and "algae-derived" oils)

      • Solar power (PV and solar thermal)

      • Wind power (horizontal axis, vertical axis, offshore, 'Turbines Integrated into Buildings')

      • Fuel Cells

      • Hydroelectric power

      • Geothermal Energy

      • Wave power

      • Tidal Power

      • Ocean thermal energy



This course is jam-packed to cover most of them. Plus end-of-section review questions, quizzes, and loads of resources.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Take this course because you want to:

  1. SAVE our planet and

  2. learn about climate change and the environment (so what's all the fuss?) Or

  3. learn about fossil fuels (what's that all about) Or

  4. Live or Work OFF-THE-GRID  (do you want a sustainable family, life and business?) Or

  5. INVEST in Yourself and Jumpstart Your CAREER with a Certificate of Completion for:

    1. a 'GREEN' Job Or

    2. college/university admission Or

  6.   learn more, as a professional whose already WORKING in the renewable energy industry

Then this course is for you.
