Faith and Environmental Justice

Catalog description

While this course is rooted in Biblical, Franciscan, and Catholic social teaching, it will also explore other spiritualities (Islam, Judaism, Native American, etc.) that respond to environmental issues. Social analysis and theological reflection skill development will enable students to better articulate the conflicts humans have in relationship with the rest of the natural world and how they can contribute to the health of the planet.
