WS 499 - Directed Study in Sustainability

For the moment, this blog will be used to correspond with my WS 499: Directed Study in Sustainability course.

Note to students: We are reading Silent Spring by Rachel Carson and Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver.

Carson's book in a primer ecofeminism and ecojustice - not really sure she knew that would be the case. Carson did know that our attempt to control our world, our environment, and our ecospheres would eventually be our demise. Carson left us with a legacy wrought with questions that still loom today.
In the new millennium, ecofeminist like Vandana Shiva, Karen Warren, Starhawk, and Rosemary Radford Ruether continue to pursue these questions from very different perspectives and backgrounds.

Our blogs will take us on that journey from roughly 1960 through present. Please use outside sources and explore this topic to the best of your ability!
