As described by UNE:
“An introduction to environmental challenges and opportunities which emphasizes that humans are part of ecosystems within interdependent cycles which involve other organisms, air, water, chemicals, and energy. The course examines the relationships of humans to their environment from historical, economic, scientific, aesthetic, and ethical perspectives.”
Student’s perscpective:
In this course, you will take trips to the great outdoors to areas that are on UNE land. We spent a couple weeks in class learning about the American Chestnut Tree: spoiler: it is in danger, and very important to the ecosystem. Certain modern technologies are discussed on their impacts on the world. You will get a better sense of local landscape and how people have changed the planet.
