This in­ter­dis­ci­pli­nary course ex­am­ines cur­rent en­vi­ron­men­tal is­sues from a macro­eco­nomic per­spec­tive, fo­cus­ing on both the long and short-term eco­nomic vi­a­bil­ity of var­i­ous pro­pos­als to ad­dress cur­rent en­vi­ron­men­tal chal­lenges. While the dis­ci­pline of Eco­nom­ics serves as a cen­tral focus, the course draws ex­ten­sively from the per­spec­tives of So­ci­ol­ogy, Ar­chi­tec­tural Tech­nol­ogy, En­vi­ron­men­tal Con­trol Tech­nol­ogy, Hos­pi­tal­ity Man­age­ment (sus­tain­able tourism), and Sus­tain­able Tech­nol­ogy. Tra­di­tional goals of eco­nomic ef­fi­ciency will be ex­am­ined in the con­text of the need to ex­pand re­new­able en­ergy sources, green build­ing de­sign and con­struc­tion, sus­tain­able agri­cul­ture and trade, re­source al­lo­ca­tion and other ef­forts to com­bat cli­mate change on a global scale. It fo­cuses on both the long and short-term eco­nomic vi­a­bil­ity of var­i­ous pro­pos­als to ad­dress cur­rent en­vi­ron­men­tal chal­lenges draw­ing upon the in­her­ent in­ter­dis­ci­pli­nary con­nec­tion to these vital eco­nomic is­sues.
