      Environmental issues fill the headlines — climate change, pollution, species loss, to name but a few. In this microprogram, you will study important questions such as how it might be possible to grow the economy while protecting the environment at the same time. You will reflect and exchange on the complexities of our current model of economic development and evaluate how sustainable it is.
