Beschreibung:
This course (in English only) offers a range of topics related to sustainability issues, with an emphasis on (but not restricted to) ecological and physical resource efficiency aspects of sustainability. Topics range from (by way of example) "Climate Change: The Physical Science Basis", "Sustainable Forest Management" to "Air Quality" and "Environmental Justice". We also look at concepts of sustainable development as they are offered by natural and social scientists and the political community. The topics are presented in part by HCU-internal, in part by external speakers who are experts in their field.
Expected from participants is a high-school level general knowledge in, and interest for, the natural sciences and contemporary politics, as well as the willingness to actively work on their English vocabulary.
