At Sussex, you’ll learn from specialists in their fields, including people who inform international climate change policy at the highest levels. <br/><br/>On this solutions-based course, you’ll look at:<br/><br/><br/>- the extent of environmental degradation and its root causes<br/><br/><br/>- the often complex pathways in which these causes lead to environmental damage<br/><br/><br/>- the alternatives that can be implemented to ensure sustainability.<br/><br/><br/>You’ll take an interdisciplinary view on the scientific basis of claims of global climate change, the human responsibility and the future implications of the change. From a perspective that bridges physical and human geography, you’ll learn about environmental management and sustainable development. In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to attend regular seminars from world leading policy-makers and practitioners.<br/><br/>Our setting – within the South Downs National Park – means you’ll have the opportunity to take your learning out into the field.
