Course Content

Growing populations in less developed countries and escalating incomes in developed countries are causing increasing demands on the Earth's resources. Therefore, there are many unresolved conflicts over the use of natural resources and the conservation of the environment (environmental quality). In this course the balance between consumption and protect natural resources will be discussed.
