SENS 215 Sustainable Appal Comm (APS)

Prerequisite: GSTR 210

An introduction to practical knowledge and approaches for increasing the sustainability of communities and households in the Appalachian region and beyond. Within the context of basic community needs such as food, water, energy, and health, students learn actions that they can take for their household, and steps that the community, as a whole, can take through the efforts of city government, non-profit organizations and other groups. Examples from Appalachian communities are included that illustrate successful and promising approaches, and students participate in projects that assist a local community to become more sustainable.
