Introduce participants to the goals, principles, and practical applications of sustainability. Many organizations, companies, and institutions are increasingly interested in conducting their activities while becoming more sensitive to the environmental, social, and economic dimensions. In this course, we will examine the major environmental issues and trends happening in modern society from a scientific and practical perspective, including energy and resource use, pollution, climate change, water, and population. Five major themes in sustainability will be discussed: Sustainability and the link to the Sister of Providence, conservation, food sustainability, social justice, and financial sustainability.
