Santa Clara University

Throughout this quarter I learned so much, from being able to really understand and experience what “sustainability” is, to how to communicate effectively. Through the readings and the speakers that came to the class, I was able to get new ideas and perspectives on what sustainable living really is. Even though I consider myself to be considerably environmentally conscious, I initially struggled with coming up with a good definition of what “sustainability” is, for example. I think that what I’ve learned can be reflected in how my ideas concerning sustainability have changed, and how I’ve applied what I’ve learned outside the classroom.
