ENVS 453: Climate Politics and Governance

Environmental Studies · 4 credits

This course examines the political roots of disagreement on climate policy and treats the causes of political discord around climate change as an empirical question. This course will help students to understand the history of our current political polarization surrounding climate change and empower them to engage more productively to advance constructive policies rather than fight the predefined and entrenched political battles that dominate today.
