EN 240 - Energy and the Environment

The production and utilization of energy play a central role in modern civilization and constitute an increasing drain on our natural resources. Undesired by-products of large-scale energy usage are becoming more apparent, including local heating of streams and global warming, pollution of the atmosphere and ocean, and real and perceived dangers related to the use of advanced technology. The course explores these environmental concerns in the context of the possibilities and limitations set by physical laws and considers the extent to which science must be involved in their resolution.

Prerequisites: Prerequisite: two semesters of introductory physics.
