Environmental Science Over the course of the semester, we have covered topics that include everything from biogeochemical energy cycles to steam cars. We have built cities to fend off zombies by incorporating the use of renewable energies; discussed and defined quality of life, and we have learned about new innovative ways to provide clean water to communities all over the world.Now many years later in […]

We will focus on what is perhaps the single greatest environmental issue of our time: global climate change. Climate change not only threatens Earth’s biodiversity but may also lead to dramatic impacts on human populationssomething that we may experience within our own lifetimes.First, let us begin by reflecting on the climate where we live. Have you noticed any changes over the past decade or two […]

A scientist is testing the effectiveness of Drug X on cancer. She gives a small amount of the drug to mice that have cancer. She gives each mouse a different amount from 1 to 10 grams, and then measures the size of the tumor in each mouse before the drugs and two weeks after the drugs. She gives one of the mice sugar instead of […]

A simple way to make sense of how our individual choices affect natural ecosystems is to analyze the life cycle of everyday products, amenities, or processes (e. g., t-shirts, electronics, food). Doing so can help us make better choices about what we consume. In this activity, you will analyze the life cycle of a product to assess the extent to which its production affects the […]
