This program has been designed to help individuals better understand how economic activity – and the programmatic decisions it drives – may impact the health of the environment and society. The course will examine how and why natural resources are often undervalued or ignored completely by traditional accounting practices and economic data. It also will discuss why natural assets, such as clean air and water, tend to be abused precisely because they are the “common property” of society at large.

This class is part of the NJ Recycling Certification Series.

Speaker: Gray Russell, Dr. Anthony Broccoli, Dr. Paul D. Gottlieb, and Dr. Kevin Lyons
