课程概述

This course deals with both renewable and non-renewable energy. By applying scientific principles and considering real-world examples, you will examine: 1. Non-renewable fossil fuels with a focus on coal, petroleum and natural gas and the benefits and consequences of using each. 2. Renewable fuels such as wind and solar and identify that even renewable “green” energy sources have impacts as well as benefits. 3. Biodiversity and global change, which are the integrating units of environmental science. Additionally, you will explore answers to the following questions: 1. How do we evaluate coal, oil, and natural gas from an environmental science perspective? 2. What regulates energy conversions and losses in human-built systems? 3. How much energy “flows through your fingertips?” 4. How do we evaluate hydro, solar, wind, and biomass from an environmental science perspective? 5. How can we increase efficiency and conservation? You also take a tour of the Dartmouth Powerplant and listen to a conversation with Dartmouth Sustainability Director, Rosi Kerr. Furthermore, you will take a field trip to a PV tracker solar system, visit a straw bale house, and have a conversation about waste vegetable oil as an energy source in India....

I learned a tremendous amount, however, I am not sure about two open-ended numerical qs on the final quiz. No assignments made the course quick.

The lectures are to the point and precise, therefore very effective despite their short duration. Reading materials are also easily narrated that anyone can capture the gist of the contents before the concentration gets diverted. I find it very effective, and eye opening for who really care for environment but don't know how to contribute.

This course is so user-friendly, I was able to do it during breaks at work! It is really rewarding to have something truly for your own betterment be so accessible. I enjoyed feeding my curiosity about environmental science, and now I have something to show for it!
