This course is fantastic. The content and narrator are crystal clear, and the narrative is spot on. I applaud the focus on corporate interest, and the way in which consumers still have leverage, here.
Two points of critique:
1. The quiz is laughably easy.
2. The preview states this is worth 1CE, but upon completion, and according to USGBC's reporting system, it is only 0.5. Please update this information.
