Environmental Science and the Climate Emergency

About this course

Environmental science and the climate emergency places the most pressing challenge of our time at the centre of a rigorous scientific education. The climate and environment are changing at rates and in ways that affect every aspect of human and non-human life, from the stability of food systems and the availability of freshwater to the habitability of coastal regions and the viability of ecosystems that have taken millennia to develop.
