(POLS 120) Climate Change and Society

4 Credits

Global climate change is one of the most pressing issues of the 21st century. This course will take a political sociological perspective in examining issues related to climate change responsibility, vulnerability, and mitigation, and how these are unevenly distributed across and within nations. This course will thus investigate the larger structural causes and consequences of climate change, with a strong focus on global inequality and the possibilities for climate justice.
