Background: One of your final products will be participation in a Socratic seminar, a type of discussion that is common in college courses. In these types of discussions, you and your peers will use knowledge and skills to tackle a complex, open ended topic. In your discussion, the topic will be sustainability.  

How should we work towards environmental sustainability while meeting the needs of a growing human population?

Environmental science takes place in a social and cultural context. Understanding and solving environmental science problems requires knowing both the scientific background and how the solution would impact those involved. In addition, scientific solutions are described precisely and grounded in scientific evidence. Preparing notes, questions, and ideas will help you make strong contributions to this discussion!

Instructions: As you explore the Focus Areas, case studies, and topics related to this project, organize your notes, ideas, and questions below. You will be able to draw on these notes during your Socratic discussion.
