Case Study: Application of Environmental Management Concepts:
By this time in the course, you would have seen an overview of global ENMT issues, and examined integrative and international perspectives to environmental management. You would have also read about specific cases that demonstrate the need for an integrative approach to ENMT. As part of your authentic assessments, you will choose a case study on which to reflect and apply your knowledge of environmental management, integrating ENMT concepts, strategies, and perspectives, especially those covered in this course.
You may choose one of the following:
- – Events that led to the Cuyahoga River fires in 1969 up to the present
- – Mono Lake, from the 1940’s to the present
- – Donora, Pennsylvania, from the 1940’s to the present
Your case study should provide the following:
Component
Brief summary of the major events that led to the crisis
Possible points: 10

(A) Resolve the problem more effectively given the present state of the case (what has been implemented and can be further implemented)
OR
(B) Avoid future cases like the one you investigated
whichever one is the most applicable case to demonstrate your management knowledge.
Make sure to think clearly about each particular situation given time, culture, and resources in the context of your case.
