This course presents a public health perspective on climate change and ecosystem health. Students explore how climate change is defined and assessed; its environmental causes and effects; and its effects on populations. Public health initiatives, public education, and policy options to reduce climate change, minimize its effects, and heighten resilience are discussed. The background science and ethics of diversity and inclusion will be applied to the study of climate change, with a focus on climate and environmental justice and cultural humility. The overall objective of this course is for students to articulate how global policies related to energy and agriculture impact human, animal, and ecosystem health and how diversity, inclusion, and cultural humility are key elements to these relationships.
