Over 30 years ago, Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring" warned that man-made chemicals
were taking a deadly toll on birds and wildlife. Using the emerging science of sustainability,
this seminar uses "Our Stolen Future" to explore whether the situation has improved.
Are we threatening human sexual development, reproduction, and intelligence? If so,
why is this happening? Explore cultural paradigms supporting the underlying laws and
policy, and implications for humans and the environment.
For more information or permission to register, please contact University Honors College at (907) 786-1086 or ayhonor@uaa.alaska.edu. This course will satisfy three credits of GER in Humanities.
