HSEM 2516H - Slow Death by Rubber Duck: Chemicals We Use and Their Effects on the Environment and Us (2 Cr.) Honors
Course description
We use chemicals every day. We bathe in chemicals. We apply chemicals to our lawn. Chemicals are sprayed to control insects. While chemicals are an important part of modern life, these chemicals wind up in the environment and in our bodies. This seminar will examine how our use of chemicals drives our exposures and ultimately, where these chemicals wind up in the environment and what their impacts are. This seminar is designed for you to look at how you use chemicals in your daily life and how this influences your exposure to chemicals, environmental releases of chemicals, and the impact of chemicals on humans and the environment.
