ENVS 523 - Environmental Ethics

(3cr) Ethical implications of decision making dealing with environmental issues, ranging from development to air and water pollution to sources of energy are at the core of study of the environment and major challenges to modern society. Environmental racism, cultural impact and global decision making all link directly with the ethical dilemma regarding environmental issues, all major focus areas of Environmental Studies. Through discussion and real world examples students will develop decision making skills that allow comprehension of the ethical dilemmas connected with environmental policy and law both in the United States and with broader global perspective.
