In Spring 2025, the Micro-Course will be PS 1555, "Technology, Humanity, and Social Justice: Environment and Sustainability." It will be available March 14-16th. This course focuses on humanity's use of technology and the disparate impacts on and benefits to the environment and varying groups of people. This will include discussion around the material, environmental, and health costs of extracting materials necessary to technology development and production as well as the waste created by the consumption habits initiated by global reliance on technology. It will also include a discussion of technology's role in advancing sustainability. To register for PS 1555, contact Veronica Dristas (dristas@pitt.edu) and she will provide a special permission number.
