Humans are now faced with environmental issues on a global scale never seen before.
It will take all of our best minds, effort, and political will to make some changes at how we go about living our lives. Now more than ever, environmental science requires the collaborative effort of scientists in many fields to understand the complexities of our environment so that we can create a sustainable environment for our growing population.
This course looks at the diversity of energy types, the environmental impacts and where the trends are headed.
To offset our bad habits, we outline some of the exciting innovations that aim to solve some of our most pressing issues.
This comprehensive introductory course by Dr. Mike Kozuch and Dr. Gita Dunhill will help every student gain an overview of this fascinating field in a clear and structured format.
Chapters and Extras.
Plus imagery that comes alive with animation, panospheres, and 3D immersive photography.
What students are saying about the content.
• The book was the most interesting book I had in a long time. The videos the professor had were really awesome and made me understand the material even more.
• The electronic book that he coauthored was well thought out, lots of visuals (pictures and videos he did himself) to add to the lessons.
• I loved this course. I loved everything about it. The videos were great and reinforced my learning. Thank you!
Great course, very informative book. Very environment focused with logical possible solutions.

Read MoreBy far has taught me that humanity is by far the worst enemy to Planet Earth, and in this case I will be more mindful of what I control in my life. Like waste and so on, as well as how to utilize different methods of already confirmed solutions to make my day to day life not as wasteful.
Read LessVery accessible way to cover material that can be overwhelming to anyone who is not Science focused. The videos were the most helpful aspect of the text.

Gita Dunhill, PhD
Gita teaches a variety of undergraduate and graduate level courses at Cal State East Bay within the Earth and Environmental Sciences Department. She is a marine geologist whose interests range from climate change records to general oceanography. Gita has participated in many scientific cruises in and around the Arctic region obtaining sediment cores to reconstruct past climates and has mapped the sea floor off the coasts of Iceland and Greenland. Her lifelong goal is to spend as much time as possible in and around our world’s oceans.
When not teaching Gita can be found traveling the globe in search of geological wonders from Southern Cambodia to coastal Marin County with her golden doodle, Maddie. Her work combines her love of teaching, geology, and exploration.
