I have been developing a methodology for Solari to determine the total economic return (impact on both investor and living ecosystem) of a mining operation. I have been inching along as my understanding of geology is limited to dim recollections of high school science.
I just decided to put the effort on hold and watch The Teaching Company’s course in Geology: The Nature of Earth: An Introduction to Geology taught by John J. Renton of West Virginia University. It is unbelievably helpful. These things are the opposite of Hollywood – a professor who is authentic and grounded, loves to learn and teach and really cares. When I was in college or business school, you were lucky to have 1 or 2 of such teachers a year. Now it appears you can have them every time for whatever topic you want to learn about. This may be better than Netflix documentaries.
If you have had an experience with The Teaching Company’s courses, I would love to know which ones you recommend.
