CPED 205 - A Hot Mess: How Can We Address Global Warming? (4 Cr.)
Global warming is a popular term that describes a number of environmental changes precipitated by human actions. Despite the scientific consensus that exists about devastating effects associated with global warming, those effects - or even their existence - have been contested in some quarters. For that reason, in this class we will explore the scientific evidence of global warming, the current and predicted effects resulting from it, and the potential actions to address it. Although this exploration will decisively be through a scientific lens, we will use an interdisciplinary perspective, relying on cultural and societal perspectives in an effort to provide a comprehensive view of this topic. To gain a deeper understanding of this subject, you will collaboratively propose a scientifically sound approach to address global warming at a local setting. Restricted to first-year and sophomore students, and others with instructor permission. Students are limited to one CPE course per semester. Offered Spring 2019. Mora.
