Course Description:
In this course, we will explore the variety of ways that the parts of the natural world interact and depend on each other. From the smallest insects to the largest trees, there is a complex web outside our doors that can be explored through biology, physics, chemistry, and more.  We will learn about the ecology of population growth, communities, and conservation and how it relates to the consumer lifestyle, and to the impacts of resource depletion and environmental degradation. This is a hands-on, student-led exploration of the world of Environmental Science.
