ENVS 80E Climate Justice
Drawing inspiration from a long history of social justice movements, this course hopes to educate a new generation of climate justice changemakers. Pre-recorded lectures by faculty experts, readings, and multimedia content deepen students’ understanding of the most pressing issues and solutions related to climate change. After engaging with lectures and supplemental materials on their own time, students come together for synchronous Zoom discussions to share their experiences of the course materials and learn from their peers. Because facing the realities of climate change can induce intense emotions, this curriculum includes awareness-based practices and include space for students to reflect and journal, giving them time to process and retain these different forms of knowledge.
