This course provides the student with a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary introduction, for the engaged non-specialist, to the causes and consequences of, and responses to, the climate crisis.

We discuss in detail the science of climate breakdown and strategies to ameliorate its impacts.

We also, but to a lesser degree, explore the social and political context – how climate breakdown impacts societies, and how the international polity is attempting to coordinate a global response to the challenge. This is where I plan to focus on for the Wikipedia assignment.

We will identify topics such as legal cases, particular climate events, political debates, development of laws, cultural manifestations, really anything beyond the hard science of climate change. I cast a very wide net as to what is a suitable topic - anything related to climate change, except the hard science.
