Some Environmental Questions?
1)a) Americans are polarized when it comes to climate change: fewer than half of us are alarmed or concerned and many remain doubtful or dismissive. Using the terms and definitions from Stephanie Kaza’s ecopsychology lecture and Amy’s lecture on environmental ethics and principles, discuss where this spectrum of response may come from. Describe psychological reactions, worldviews, and evolving ethical frameworks that may contribute to our national response to this global phenomenon.
2) b) Agroecology is the study of the integrative ecology of our entire food system. As an alternative to conventional food production, how does agroecology address ecological, economic and social dimensions as described by the “triple bottom line†emphasis of sustainability? Describe each dimension with examples and discuss how agroecological practices are or are not increasing our regional and national sustainability. Ads |
