ENVIRONMENTAL CITIZENSHIP

How should we think about our role and responsibilities as citizens who face a global environmental challenge? Based on the general principles of national citizenship, environmental citizenship goes beyond national borders to emphasize global environmental rights and responsibilities. We focus on both the conservation and planned sustainable use of our planet's resources, as well as the recognition that environmental health is a prerequisite to human health. Environmental citizenship is a personal commitment to learning more about the environment and to taking responsible environmental action. This course explores how we can adopt attitudes and behaviours that foster global environmental responsibility.

This course is also offered online.
