This course is offered in conjunction with the certificate in Sustainable Environmental, Social, and Governance Leadership. Many students who are interested in contributing to sustainability activities in their organizations or communities may not have had the opportunity to learn basic concepts in sustainability science. This course provides the student with a grounding in the science of climate change, water, waste, and health that is relevant to the sustainability of organizations. Students will develop an understanding of greenhouse gas emissions and the carbon cycle, climate change and meteorological risk, water and human activity, waste, biodiversity, electrification and health risks and be able to apply them to sustainability challenges facing for profit, nonprofit, or governmental organizations.
