In Sarah Griggs' Climate Change and Sustainability three-week block class, students explore the many factors contributing to our changing climate as well ways individuals can make a conscious effort to live in harmony with the natural world in order for ecological balance to remain intact. Students discuss the greenhouse effect and how humans enhance this life-supporting global attribute by examining different types of scientific data to help better understand how climate has fluctuated in Earth’s history and how this change has been increased exponentially since the industrial revolution. The course also explores how humans can be more conscious global citizens and act to counter the changes that are being observed globally. #sustainability #climatechange #greenhouseeffect #socialresponsibility #hmsjourney
