This course provides a foundation for understanding how society perceives and values natural resources both in North America and around the globe. We will explore the institutions that oversee and manage our environment, using current issues as examples of community and social change, and stressing the important role of communication and education with the public and stakeholders. Many natural resources issues are confusing, complicated, and exacerbated by a lack of thoughtful, helpful communication with the public. We will consider the factors that result in these conflicting interests and discuss potential paths for working with complex human and natural resource systems.
