SOC 1445 - SOCIETY AND ENVIRONMENT

The state of the environment reaches the pages of our newspapers every day. How did we get to this state? Throughout history, human societies have made use of the environment as all human activity is dependent on through puts of energy and materials. The course will seek to understand the social, economic, and political processes as they lead to impacts on the environment.
