Natural Sciences 191CNS18 - FYS - Making Sense/GlblWarming

Climate change is real, and today the earth is warming at a rate which has never been seen before. In this seminar course, we will see why the earth is getting hotter with every passing day, how scientists are studying this change and how we can predict the future of the earth's climate system. You'll also learn how humans activities are leading to global warming, and what can be done to reverse our impact on the earth's climate. The course will consist of short lectures, debates and group activities which will help you understand what climate change is, and what we should do about it. Finally, armed with all this knowledge, you'll be equipped to respond to climate misinformation and debunk myths regarding global warming.
