3 hours per week * Peninsula
Environmental problems cannot be adequately understood from a single-discipline background, hence this subject incorporates studies in biological, physical and geographical sciences; law; economics and politics. Topics studied are examined from a diversity of perspectives in order to develop a greater understanding of decisions made by various sectors of the community when dealing with environmental questions. Environmental issues considered range from those relevant to the individual in terms of health, such as cancer, to global considerations such as populations and energy.
