5 credit hours
Formerly - THRS 3240

This course explores the relationship between environmental issues and religion. Students will learn about a variety of religious traditions (Daoism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Indigenous Traditions, nature spirituality, and so forth) and their responses to a number of ecological issues (climate change, loss of biodiversity, air and water pollution as it relates to human health, and more). While this class will primarily be a seminar style course, it will also incorporate multimedia, food, and local trips into the learning experience.
