Some student project examples from ARTS 490: The Future of Nature
- The Food Shakers team produced a documentary video, The Future of Food, that “works to unearth the sustainable food narrative in the Waterloo region” featuring interviews with a variety local growers and producers of vegetables, meat, dairy and honey.
- Living Campus explores greening the UWaterloo campus. The work is “inspired by the tensions and possibilities between informal green spaces and formal managed designs,” with ideas and insights gathered from faculty, graduate students and other members of the campus community.
- Contagious Impact: Divestment as Student Activism is an online petition to encourage fossil fuel divestment by the Universality of Waterloo. “Our goal is to show the value of working across student groups […] when people come together for a specific purpose, voices are amplified, and structural change can happen.”
