Hello Everyone,
Happy 2019 to everyone. Below is the latest for BCcampus Open Education.
New textbook
Environmental Science: A Canadian Perspective
<https://open.bccampus.ca/find-open-textbooks/?uuid=1ff23e21-e22d-482d-9fc5-6ec698b6817e&contributor=&keyword=&subject=Earth,%20Ocean%20&%20Atmospheric%20Science>
This is the first open textbook published by Dalhousie University. It has been used for
many years and underwent five revisions. When the author and Dalhousie faculty member,
Bill Freedman, passed away, his widow agreed to publish the newest edition as an open
textbook. This textbook is intended to provide the core elements of a curriculum for
teaching environmental science at the introductory level in Canadian colleges and
universities. This book is suitable for students beginning a program in environmental
science, environmental studies, or sustainability.
