FYS 1064 ANIMALS, EARTHLINGS, & PLANET

When one considers our ecological footprints and how humans use (and over-use) planetary resources, it is often forgotten that animals rely on those same natural resources for survival.  The course examines the human relationship with animals and its role in ecosystem health, as well as the role of animals -- wild or domesticated, food or pets -- in the environmental challenges facing the planet today.  The course also considers the role of activists fighting for the environment or animal welfare/liberation and their potential to work together for planetary coexistence of all earthlings.
