SD 2610 - Science for Sustainability (3)

When Offered: Fall; Spring
Conventional development approaches are not sustainable because they degrade natural systems that are essential to planetary well-being, justice, and equity. An understanding of natural systems, including climate, biosphere, watersheds, and more, is thus necessary to shift interactions between nature and society toward more sustainable trajectories. This course is a survey of the natural sciences that support sustainable development.
Prerequisite: Demonstrated Readiness for College-level Math.
