Course #: ENVSTY 150L

Description:
Introduction to Climate Change covers the processes involved in Earth's climate and the history of climate up to the present day, with a key goal of gaining insight into ongoing climate change and the future. Students will develop a basic but robust understanding of the major controls on climate, in part as a foundation for considering climate-related issues in various disciplines and areas of human concern. We will also nurture a sense of curiosity and wonder about this amazing planet that we call home.This course is designed to be accessible to students concentrating in the social sciences, humanities, or arts. At the same time, science and engineering-oriented students will find this course to be a usefully broad introduction to climate change, providing context for more specialized courses of study. For all students, our goal is to enrich your intellectual life and help you become an informed citizen.
