provides lessons for learning about the relationship between chemicals in the environment and human health. Topics include the science of toxicology, dose-response relationships, individual susceptibility, risk assessment, and environmental hazards. Students are introduced to the ever-changing nature of our understanding of how chemicals influence the health of living organisms.

Common ingredients in cigarette smoke include rat poison, urea (a substance found in human urine), sodium hydroxide (found in caustic hair removal products), and methanol (used in antifreeze).

There are many illegal drugs in existence. These drugs are often dangerous to create and extremely harmful to the human body. Drugs are addictive and can ultimately cause death if drug abuse or over-dosages occur.

Cigarette smoke contains over 4,000 different chemical compounds, one of them being nicotine. Nicotine is an extremely addictive compound. Smoking cigarettes can cause several types of cancer, make wrinkles appear around your mouth, destroy your teeth, and permanently stain your fingers yellow.

Tobacco contains nicotine, an addictive substance. Tobacco is the main substance in cigarettes. There are thousands of harmful chemicals in cigarettes. Second-hand smoke, where smoke from a burning cigarette is inhaled by someone who is not smoking, is just as bad as smoking a cigarette. Tobacco use of any kind can cause cancer and adversely affect the human body.

Examines the environment and social impacts of industrial society with a focus on the regulation of pollution, eliminating sweatshops, urbanization, and new risks. Analysis of current and emerging policies and programs that seek to respond to environmental problems, including governmental, private sector, and non-governmental responses through policies, plans, and campaigns. Modern industrial activities - which MIT engineers and scientists play a major role in - have significant environmental and social impacts. Trends towards further industrialization and globalization portend major challenges for society to manage the adverse impacts of our urban and industrial activities. How serious are current environmental and social problems? Why should we care about them? How are governments, corporations, activists, and ordinary citizens responding to these problems. This course examines environmental and social impacts of industrial society and policy responses. We will explore current trends in industrialization, urbanization, and globalization, analyze the impacts these trends have on human health, environmental sustainability, and equity, and then examine a range of policy options available for responding to current problems. The course will present key trends in both domestic and international contexts. We will examine four policy problems in particular during the course: (1) regulating industrial pollution; (2) regulating "sweatshops" and the broader impacts of globalization; (3) protecting ecosystems; and (4) protecting urban environments during development. We delve into specific cases of these challenges, including: chemical safety and toxics; computers, e-commerce, and the environment; biotech and society; sweatshops; and food production and consumption. Through these cases, we will explore underlying processes and drivers of environmental degradation. Finally, we will analyze opportunities and barriers to policy responses taken by governments, international institutions, corporations, non-governmental organizations, consumers, and impacted communities. Objectives and Aims An understanding of the complexity of environmental and social impacts of industry; An ability to critically analyze policy responses; An understanding of the roles of different actors and institutions in environmental and social controversies; Means to evaluate institutional barriers to environmental and social policies; New ideas for better integrating industry, environment, and equity; New strategies for regulation in the global economy; An understanding about personal responsibilities and roles in environmental and social problems.

This Educational pathway includes labwork (extraction of kiwi DNA) and visualizations and animations on the structure and replication of DNA, the transcription into RNA and translation to proteins. It then connects to "the bigger picture" by a simplified introduction on cloning and genetic testing. To conclude, based on this knowledge the ethical aspects of genetic testing are presented in the form of a role play.

The lessons in these teachers guides are based upon the Journey to Planet earth public television series. Included in these guides are lessons for the ten episodes in the series.
