This seminar examines diverse and contested approaches to ‘being green’. The first part of the course explores eco-innovations being piloted in the Nordic countries, home to some of the world’s greatest progress toward sustainable development and carbon-neutral living. In the second portion of the class, students travel into the Arctic Circle to question whether sustainability is living up to its promise for all stakeholders. Who has been benefitted or harmed by environmental policies? Ultimately, the Seminar helps students to understand their impact on the world, and how they can take action to make that impact a more positive one.
Explore questions of human-nature interactions, animal ethics, and connections between global climate patterns and local politics.
