Document Summary

Below is a list of the major concepts presented to date. If there"s something here you don"t know or isn"t familiar, you should check your notes, talk to your fellow students, or see me at office hours. I"ve tried to make this as detailed as possible, but there"s no guarantee that every vocab word or concept is on this list. Be sure to know the major concepts from the readings, including the case studies. Material from the assigned readings is fair game for exams and quizzes although i will focus on larger concepts, not trivial factoids: context: the human footprint. Consumption: ecological footprint us average vs world average. If everyone in the world had our standard of living (= per capita rate of resource consumption), then how many planets would we need to provide all these resources: biological diversity, valuing biodiversity. Biodiversity definition vs. wildlife conservationist vs preservationist vs environmentalist vs ecologist (see book)
