• BIO 130: Cataclysm:Sci of Nat Disasters

  3.00 Credits

  Lehigh Carbon Community College

  
  "Cataclysm; The Science of Natural Diasasters" is a survey of Earth's processes that have direct, sudden and violent impacts on the environment. This non-science major, non-lab course is designed for students that desire a basic understanding of natural potentially catastrophic processes such as earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, floods, landslides, severe weather, wildfires, and coastal processes. Each of the studied natural processes potentially provides opportunities for biotic distribution, speciation or extinction. How societal decisions and subsequent vulnerabilities can transform natural occurrences into hazards, disasters and catastrophes will be addressed.

• BIO 135: Intro to Environmental Science

  3.00 Credits

  Lehigh Carbon Community College

  
  Introduction to Environmental Science will demonstrate how natural systems function and how humans influence these systems. Topics will include, but will not be limited to; environmental policy and ethics, human population growth, land use and development, environmental toxicology, freshwater and marine resources, processes and pollution, bioremediation, atmospheric processes, the use of conventional fossil fuels, and the development of alternative energy resources and renewable energy alternatives. This course is designed for non-science major students that desire a basic understanding of the science behind both environmental problems and solutions, and potential science majors who are considering Environmental Science as a major.
