  • SW 223: Princpls Sustainable Lifestyle

    4.00 Credits
    DePaul University

    Our consumer choices, habits and lifestyle have a local and global impact. The items we consume, such as: housing, furnishings, clothing, transportation, travel, food, recreation, entertainment and disposables mainly come from non-renewable natural resources produced in far away lands and have a cradle-to-grave lifecycle. Awareness and education as to the safety and efficacy of consumer products is often suspect with contradicting information from the media, manufacturers, government and advocacy groups. Employing a sustainable paradigm for all of your consumer choices will allow you to have a smaller footprint, (ecological and carbon) on the planet and live a healthier, guilt free existence. We will explore the meaning of the 'triple bottom line' or cradle to cradle approach to consumption. Consumer models, field trips and personal experiments will help pave the way to become a conscientious global citizen. Competences: S1E, S2D, S3B, H1H. Faculty: Nadine Bopp
