This course is complementary to ENVS 040 Environmental Change and Fish and Wildlife Health. This course focusses on impacts of environmental changes on human health. The course is relevant for all northerners, but particularly for those interested in working in the health or environmental field. The importance of traditional food to the health of northerners, alternative models of health and wellness, and traditional vs modern diets are all discussed in light of the latest research results on contaminants and other environmental issues in the north.
