    Description
    Same as ENV SCI 007. Credit not given for both courses. This course provides a survey of the relationships between humans and the envi- ronment, including a review of natural, geological processes and effects. Topics include a discussion of the hazards and risks associated with catastrophic geologic events like earthquakes, floods, landslides and volcanoes. Mineral, energy, soil and water resources will be discussed, the future of these resources discussed and the impacts of their extraction and consumption investigated.
