This interdisciplinary course facilitates students to critically examine how different factors shape the relationships between human beings and the natural world from social, physical, and earth science perspectives. We explore science and society's current understanding of environmental challenges and the role and perspectives of different stakeholders involved in complex and relevant challenges, like inequity in climate change adaptation. Students will engage in hands-on and out-of-the-classroom activities to investigate and design actionable solutions to bring about sustainable and just change. Moreover, students will develop skills to synthesize and translate learned concepts and discussions to student-driven projects.
