So far, the information is good, but there are volume issues, and there were too many introduction modules, that make this course seem longer than it actually is.

instead of having gas powered planes, we should make alternative planes that use solar & wind. And for cars that we drive in, we should stop the oil drills in the ocean so we can save both marine life and use electric cars instead. Plus put a a less price tag on the expensive cars.
