ES 314 - Cultural Persp GlobClimat Chng |
Global climate change is arguably the most important science-based issue of our time. Its impacts on cultures, institutions, economies, ecology, and other Earth systems are indelible and serious. The many cultures on Earth are affected by and respond to climate change in different ways. Understanding various cultural perspectives regarding this challenge is essential for an accurate and complete understanding of the impacts of climate change, as well as to understand what is possible in the way of adaptation and mitigation solutions to the challenge. In this course, the science of climate change will be reviewed in order to understand its causes and effects, and study how cultures other than our own regard and respond to climate change. Students will develop a critical understanding of these relationships as they study several developing areas of the world. (General Education – World Cultures) Three credit hours.
