Course Catalog Description:: Climate change will be a part of the rest of your life. No matter where you live, climate change will have an impact. No matter your career, adapting to a new climate will be part of it.

And how can you do so in a fair and equitable manner? Everyone is aware of young activists like Greta Thunberg.
