Course Description:
Sustainability is an important keyword not only in the present, but also in the coming years for every civilization on the Earth. Sustainability issues are not problems for only developed countries. Developing countries are starting to face the same issues, with some difficulties already emerging while others will likely encounter problems in the near future. Climate change is just one example of the sustainability issues we are facing. Sustainability issues are often reduced to mere environmental issues. However, sustainability issues cannot be perceived correctly nor be solved only by focusing on the natural environment, and it is necessary to look into interaction between human beings and the natural environment. Furthermore, we must recognize that relationships between humans around the world are also an important and integral part of sustainability issues.
