The Tohoku region's tsunami and nuclear accident significantly impacted public awareness of "environment," "energy," and "science and technology." Previously, environmental concerns primarily focused on social aspects, such as national laws and regulations (starting with eliminating the "basic seven pollutants") and public expectations regarding environmental science and technology. However, the recent events have caused skepticism towards these fields.
This course will explore: (1) Laws and regulations concerning the environment, including the ISO 14001 standard. (2) Contradictions and questions surrounding environmental issues. (3) A comprehensive analysis of energy consumption, resources, and various energy-related technologies, including some basic thermodynamics principles. The course aims to equip students with the ability to: (1) Analyze the environment and environmental improvement practices (both resource and energy perspectives) through a critical lens of science and technology. (2) Apply this knowledge to real-world scenarios, like considering how solar energy can be used to create hydrogen for a more energy-efficient and carbon-neutral society.

* The lecture slides (PPT) will also be available for your review.
* Throughout your daily life, both on and off campus, you'll encounter countless environmental issues. Consider how "science and technology" and "engineering" can contribute to addressing these challenges. As your interest grows, research these topics to deepen your understanding. Be critical of information you encounter in the mass media or online. Don't simply believe everything you read. Instead, examine reports closely and critically to identify reliable sources. Resist the temptation to accept incorrect information, as it only amplifies false narratives.

学生へのメッセージ

The Need for a Shift in Environmental Thinking, specifically focusing on the need to balance scientific and technological solutions with consideration for the social aspects. While advancements in these areas are crucial, neglecting the social dimension could be misinterpreted as a regression in technology and energy use. Truly valuable and cost-effective solutions are essential for environmental protection. How can we overcome the "bubble economy" mentality, where low-value items were inflated in price? To what extent can science and technology contribute to addressing environmental challenges? These are crucial questions for the 21st century.
As the saying goes, "you get what you pay for." Similarly, a life focused on personal gain ultimately comes at a cost – not only for ourselves, but for others, society, and the environment. We are entering an era where we will face the consequences of past selfishness, not just our own but also that of others. This is a time to embrace responsibility. I encourage you to explore readily available environmental technologies that can make a positive impact in your daily life.
By working together, we can build a more sustainable future for ourselves and for generations to come.

理系内容を
This course focuses on scientific concepts, but also covers topics relevant to humanities, such as environmental regulations and ISO standards. In the scientific component, we will use concepts essential to the field of information and engineering, such as physics, semiconductor engineering, and thermodynamics, to examine environmental issues. Through this process, you will gain a true understanding of the concepts of Entropy and Enthalpy.
