Learner Reviews & Feedback for Economics and Policies of Climate Change by EDHEC Business School
About the Course
decisive action has to be taken. But what realistic options do we have? Since our resources are limited, is it better to act now or wait until we
have more advanced and less expensive technology? How big do our abatement efforts have to be? This MOOC will help you understand how
economists try to answer these questions and find the optimal course of action. Most important, it will give you the conceptual tools to draw
your own conclusions. In the first part of the MOOC, you will learn about the two main approaches used by economists to det...

Great course, but it's a little bit harder than expect for me which don't have a economy background.

The program is successful and well prepared. However, adding more good practices for different sectors from the world may be better to understand the topics. Thank you.

Lack of relevant knowledge, this professional course is very difficult for me. Throughout a long and hard time, I am glad that I had been persisted and completed it.

It is a specialist course about intricacies of climate change economics, models for cost abatement and social discounting and energy policies. It is in-depth ,rigorous and challenging course. I highly recommend it to Economists and Sustainable Finance Professionals.

This course is an overview approaching economic model to try to understand approach on the CO2 and GHG from politic, governmental, tax point of view using some on hands elements. System are complicated if approached through mathematics, becasue of calculation but a multiple systems has to be considered to foreseen a real future scenario. too many variables, externatilities but as baseline rate and social discount to try to explain what to do now or postpone tomorrow. As usual some economic model are contradictory so maybe are trying to explain one scenario and at the end they explain another one, so counter-logical. Anyway a start to go in depth to argue based on economics.

Good course. I learned a lot.
However, there is a great emphasis on mathematics. Sometimes that's a bit exaggerated in my opinion .

Week 1 is basic knowledge, explained well.
Weeks 2 and 3 explain how a house of cards is built, but not why it's not a house of cards.
Weeks 4 & 5 are of uneven quality but overal useful because providing valuable links to reliable resources.

Overall I think the course is too superficial. A lot of equations threw there and there is no a real case study. NPV applied to a real case? no etc
The course is too theoretical and I don't think it gives you the base to calculate real investment cases.
