• BIOL 2411: Env Science and Sustainability

  3.00 Credits

  Pennsylvania Western University

  
  Humans are changing the global environment in profound ways but the consequences are not widely understood. This course will examine current environmental issues from a scientific perspective and explore how science can be best used to shape sound environmental law and regulation, public lands, types and sources of air and water pollution, and other environmental issues of current interest. Environmental issues of local and regional importance will be emphasized. Three lecture hours weekly. Credit not to be applied toward a biology major.
