I will be teaching undergraduate courses in Environmental Issues and would very much appreciate your thoughts on text books and readings. Calendar descriptions follow:
Environmental Issues - 2nd year An introduction to the study of people in their physical surroundings. The central themes of the course focus on humans as agents of environmental change, and as users of the earthÂ’s resources. Emphasis will also be placed on examination of fundamental concepts, methods and techniques used to study human/environment systems. Environment and Resources - 3rd year An investigation into the relationship between humans and their environment in terms of resource use and exploitation. Focus is on integrative thinking about the complexity of environmental management through the examination of biogeochemical concepts as well as socioeconomic concerns; and on the introduction of procedures, techniques, and rationales for managing environmental resources. Advanced Topics in Environmental Issues - 4th year This course provides students the opportunity to explore topics and issues of environmental concern from a geographical perspective. Emphasis will be placed on seminar discussions, field trips and case studies. Thanks!
