OLLI0139 - A Roadmap for Living the Era of Global Warming

Course Description

In this course we will explore the unprecedented challenge that humanity faces in the ongoing environmental crisis. While scientists have been warning us for decades about the costs of desecrating the environment, most of us--and our leaders—have been asleep at the wheel. The reasons are numerous and exploring them can teach us new ways to live. How we respond to this crisis has implications for every aspect of our lives, including what we eat, where and how we live, and what we and our progeny can hope for. Our survival as a species may depend on the choices we make over the next decade. Various strategies for mitigation and adaptation, both individual and social, will be woven into all the sessions. This course will be recorded.
