Environmental Issues

Catalog description

This course will provide students the opportunity to examine both sides of a number of controversial environmental issues. Class discussions requiring alternating viewpoints will allow the opportunity to recognize personal bias and help develop educated personal opinions. Current environmental issues will be examined in light of the current economic, political and social climate. This course is entirely web-based; class interaction will be through an on-line discussion board and all quizzes and assignments will be completed on-line. Students must participate weekly in the class discussions.
