AFS 140 - Climate Crisis, Human Health and Justice

Description
Unprecedented heatwaves, flooding, wildfires, tornadoes, cyclones, droughts, insect populations, deforestation, extinction, ice loss, sea level rise… Climate change has come so far, and has reached a level of acceleration, that catastrophic consequences that were once predicted by the end of the century are now expected in the next decade or two. This course will examine the climate crisis not as a threat to nature, but as a threat to human health and well being – particularly among populations in vulnerable regions that have high exposure and vulnerability, and low resilience capacity. Same as ENE/NSP/PBH/STS 140 .
