Politics, Science, & Values: Intro to Environmental Thought and Practice
Course Description
What is our relationship to the environment? Physical, chemical, or biological phenomena can be described by environmental scientists but "problems" are defined by our response to them, contingent on culture, history and values more than measurements. Solving environmental problems lies in the political sphere, but our debates draw on discourses from philosophy, economics and ethics. Explore the basis for environmental thought and practice.
