Addressing Climate Change in Classes
The Senate also passed a motion presented by the Ad Hoc Committee on fossil fuel use and climate change, agreeing to look into creating more classes about climate change and integrating the issue into less-related areas of study to promote awareness.
The committee’s report also proposed carbon reduction targets and increased faculty involvement in advocating clean energy use on campus. Professor Brian Christens said the threat of climate issues is real.
“The overwhelming weight of scientific evidence suggests that the peril is not potential,” Christens said. “It is real.”
