Section Title: Food, Water, Energy Section Info: "Sustainability" may seem like it's all about science but as human beings, we learn to act on our environment through experiences that shape our relation to the natural world. In this class we think about how stories help us to explore these connections to food, water, and energy. Turning the campus into our lab and our readings into inspiration, we will source meals and embark on field trips. We will read memorable works of literature from different parts of the world including popular dystopic fiction ("cli-fi"). Restriction(s): Restricted to students with Freshman or Sophomore class standing.
