During the curriculum review , it was advised by Joel Fares from MCDI that carbon trading studies should be taught as independent courses for the Department of Forest and Environmental Economics due to their global trend on climate change mitigation. Additionally, it was highlighted that Environmental Impact Assessment course subject should be a core subject due to its importance in the modern society of environmental and social impact assessment of various development projects. The search results provide information on forest carbon trading, carbon markets, forest carbon credits, and forest carbon offset projects. Forest carbon projects offer a practical and credible low-cost option to mitigate CO2 emissions, and forest ecosystems play a critical role in mitigating climate change. Therefore, incorporating carbon trading studies and Environmental Impact Assessment courses into the curriculum can help students develop the necessary skills to address the complex challenges of climate change and environmental sustainability.
