ENV S&P 703. Critical Minerals for Green Energy. 1 Credit.

Humanity is dependent on energy to thrive in the modern world; however, "Green Energy" technologies require more critical minerals than traditional energy sources. This course explores the geology and geography of these minerals, their clean energy uses, and the environmental, political, and social consequences of their extraction. Students will read, evaluate, and discuss peer-review papers, government reports, and other relevant sources.
