It wrestles the intersections between human society and the environment, including the ways in which environmental problems ' such as climate change, land clearing and waste ' are tied to social, political, economic and cultural processes. Understanding these connections is vital to addressing these environmental challenges, this major equips you with the analytical and research skills to do just this. To chart responses, the major scrutinizes local, national and international causes of environmental issues, and draws from alternative disciplines, philosophies and ethics, with a hearty dose of politics of hope. Topics covered include global issues of social and environmental injustice, environmental racism and violence, the politics of conflict, and activism and social change. The major will be particularly relevant for students wanting to work in areas such as government policy making, environmental communication and advocacy, international development, and those wishing to work to address environmental and social challenges.
