Additionally, students will study the effects of people and the activities of our daily lives on the earth's surface: our use of soil to grow food, our habits-walking, driving and building on soils and bedrock, extraction of drinking water from the ground, use of petroleum and other mineral resources, and pollution of soil and water, as examples. There is no pre-requisite for this course; however, high school earth science and/or Introductory Geology (GEO 101) would be helpful. Basic math concepts and functions will be incorporated into the course.
