Earth Resources introduces students to the occurrences,
origins, and usages of the Earth's principal mineral
resources and discusses the political and socio-economic
consequences of resource discovery, resource depletion and
the environmental impact of extraction processes. The
"industrial" revolution/evolution of Europe from Stone age
to Oil age will be used to provide examples of the role
mineral (and energy) resources played in the birth,
development, and decline of cultural groups and nations.
