Trinity Campus, Course number:10741, Professor Paul Bierman

Our world is facing a slew of environmental issues for which the understanding of Earth as a system is critical to crafting meaningful and workable solutions. Global warming, the world-wide modification of our landscapes, and the dispersion of persistent pollutants including organic chemicals and heavy metals are just a few of the environmental issues for which a global perspective and an appreciation of deep time and geologic principals are important. In this seminar, we will shape and refine our ethical and moral stands as scientists by reading and discussing works by a variety of authors interested in the health of our planet and the role science plays in its future.
