BIOL 208 - Intro to Environmental Science |
This course explores the human relationship with
the natural environment by examining the critical
issues that affect the viability and sustainability of
natural resources of our planet. Natural resources,
their importance, distribution, and impacts from
human use and over-use are examined at local, state,
national and global levels. The course uses case
studies of current-day environmental issues and their
relationship to concepts of ecological, air, soil, water,
energy, biodiversity, and population dynamics. Issues
are examined from viewpoints of scientific theories of
environmental impacts as well as human interactions
and constituent viewpoints.
