What does it take to address environmental problems? Why does it seem so hard to do so? This course examines the complexity of environmental policy making by exploring the wide range of perspectives and entities that are involved in creating environmental policies. Students apply that knowledge to several environmental policy issues, such as food, climate, environmental justice and energy. The goal is to better understand the constraints and opportunities for environmental protection in the United States.
