“
CIVL2130 Environmental Issues,
Monitoring and Assessment
is a
fantastic course that I would highly
recommend to anyone studying
at UQ. The environmental issues
discussed are incredibly interesting
and affect everyone living on Earth.
It becomes unmistakably clear how
it is of the utmost importance to
understand our interaction with the
world around us and to approach
living comfortably within the means
of nature. Discussing the issues
presented – such as global warming,
population and sustainability –
further ignited my curiosity and has
continued to compel me to use my
degree to contribute to the world
at large.”
