This course addresses the science behind our knowledge of human impact on the planet and how we measure and communicate that impact, with an emphasis on out-of-the-classroom experience and critical thinking. We will consider multiple areas of scientific interest, including cities and transportation systems, changes to earth processes, overfishing and species extinctions on land, the creation and use of hazardous chemicals, waste generation, and the use of antibiotics and resources such as fossil fuels and water.
