SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES

Environmental Studies (ENST) Social Science & Human Srv

Course Description

Modern development practices destroy the environment, diminish our quality of life, and rob the legacy that we leave to future generations. This macro-scale course addresses the need for planning and development alternatives that will allow us to reshape our communities so that they are sustainable--ecologically, socially, and economically. The course will draw upon successful models of sustainable technologies and community initiatives and the outcomes of the global discussion over how to achieve sustainable habitats. Learning will employ the College campus as a microcosm of society, field research in local communities, and visits to model settings. Recommended for Environmental majors and other students concerned with shaping a better future.
