Why do we protect water resources? How was acid rain discovered? and what is the future of our water resources? These questions and many more will be answered as we learn about the history of water protection, how these resources are protected today, and discuss what may be in store for their futures. Through case studies we will see how acid rain was discovered in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, and talk about algae preventing people from swimming or fishing in the Great Lakes. If you want to know how your actions can protect the rivers and lakes of our world, join me this semester for an exploration of environmental science.
Open to Natural Sciences Freshman with a declared major or on the Natural Sciences Exploratory Track. Freshmen Only
