Course Description: This course provides a comprehensive survey of all key areas: astronomy, plate tectonics, weather and climate, and more.  In this class students will answer questions like: What has made Earth able to sustain life? If we are not successful in stopping the negative changes to planet Earth, is there an exoplanet that is Earth-like enough to sustain life?; Why do earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis occur in some places on Earth, how are they related, and what does this all mean for risk in different parts of the world?; Will there be more frequent and more intense severe storms in the future?
