This is an Enduring Question course and is open to FRESHMAN only. You must also register for the accompanying ENVS1702.These courses address the relationship between humans and their environment. Exploring both imaginative and scientific approaches to ecology, we will study how humans have exploited nature, but also how the environment is inextricable from the human experience. Through case studies from ecological literature and conservation science, we will develop skills in identifying environmental degradation, crafting equitable solutions, and expressing ourselves in writing and speech. These courses take a comparative approach to analyzing the history and tradition of diverse narratives of environmental exploitation and conservation through readings from South Asia, Small Island Nations, the Americas, West Africa, and others.
