  • EENV 300: Sustainable Earth

    2.00 Credits
    Susquehanna University

    Many environmental systems are in crisis today because of our demand for energy, water, food, and mineral resources. The systems addressed in this course may include global climate change, ocean habitat and productivity, sustainable food production, or the availability of safe, pure drinking water. Students will address current issues that focus on an environmental system, and they will discuss our present options with a perspective of how we may influence or be influenced by this system in the future. 2 SH.
