The course is timely as climate change will, directly and indirectly, affect the enjoyment of human rights. Typical examples are sea level rise, temperature increases, and extreme weather events affecting the rights to health, food, water, and life. This course covered more or less the entire region in line with climate change and human rights. Personally, I found the course timely and worthwhile.

I've learned alot from this course . Thank you so much. Human rights should be given to all people in all nations regardless the race or religion. Humans should also enjoy the same rights in every part of the world. Climate change is an important topic we should really take into consideration and focus on. We need to have alternative ways for power and avoid using natural resources for the sake of mother earth as well. I really have a plan for this . Solar energy comes from a natural exterior source God has provided. We can use solar cars too. And also other alternative ways environment friendly that would lead to not using all the natural resources. We can be extra smart. Avoid industries that spoil our human right to breathe and disturb the air and the surrounding. We can do it . We can fight for it and achieve it. Earth is beautiful we were born here and it is our responsibility.
