SLOs

Our administrative overlords have required us to submit boilerplate about our learning outcomes. I think this course is aiming at these:

 PHIL 3340, Environmental Ethics SLOs

* Heighten students' awareness of the salient issues and challenges emerging from the ever-increasing (and increasingly-deleterious) impact of human activity on the natural world.

* Impress upon students the potentially-dire ecological implications of anthropogenic impacts for all of life (human and otherwise) in the near and distant future. 

* Encourage students to reflect urgently on what steps individuals, institutions, and societies must take if these impacts are to be reversed, neutralized, minimized, or mitigated. 

* Prepares environmental career specialists to delve more deeply into research and applied strategies for ameliorating catastrophic climate outcomes and ecological disruptions

* Prepare non-specialists to participate competently in  the democratic process, in the quest for effective amelioration at the level of public policy and personal conduct.
