An enviornmental policy class which closely examines the environmental and public health impacts of the production, transport, use and disposal of plastics. It is taught on-line and includes many community people who audit the class - creating a nice exchange of ideas between Bennington students and grassroots environmental advocates from across the country. Climate change, environmental justice, health and community action are the central focuses of this class. Based in CAPA, there is a heavy emphasis on how to effectively use public action to address this particular issue.
