近年來墨西哥灣漏油事件、西伯利亞森林大火、冰島火山爆發、福山核電廠輻射外洩、台灣爆發之塑化劑及食用油污染等議題﹐影響深遠。科技文明造成生態的變遷﹐已經成為人類生存的危機。京都議定書的簽訂到哥本哈根高峰會議﹐環境變遷已經取代冷戰時代核武﹐成為強國角力與第三世界國家合縱聯橫的議題。2000-2003年於康健雜誌擔任資深撰述期間﹐參與環境荷爾蒙（多氯聯苯米糠油遺害、台南安順鹼廠等）、肉品安全等相關專題報導﹐省察到台灣工業化過程中對大眾食安及健康之影響。2002年在美國聖路易華盛頓大學任Visiting Profession時,曾就近採訪位於聖路易的基因轉作科技大本營的孟山都Monsento﹐以及自然農場Natural Farm等專題﹐深入理解科技發展引發全球之環境、生態、政治、社會及國家競爭等治絲亦棼之全球話議題連動影響。本課程以社會學的視角為出發﹐以全球環境變遷、台灣環保現狀、如何建構人與自然和諧關係等三個方向作為主軸；針對環境變遷所產生的議題﹐以新聞專題寫作的教學形式﹐藉以訓練學生觀察、分析、表達的組織能力。

In recent years, issues such as the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, forest fires in Siberia, volcanic eruptions in Iceland, radiation leaks from the Fushan Nuclear Power Plant, and the plasticizer and cooking oil pollution erupting in Taiwan have had far-reaching impacts. Scientific and technological civilization has caused ecological changes, which have become a crisis for human survival. From the signing of the Kyoto Protocol to the Copenhagen Summit, environmental changes have replaced nuclear weapons in the Cold War era and become an issue for powerful countries to compete with third world countries. From 2000 to 2003, he served as a senior writer for a health magazine, where he participated in special reports on environmental hormones (polychlorinated biphenyl rice bran oil hazards, Tainan Anshun Alkali Plant, etc.), meat safety and other related topics, and observed the impact of Taiwan's industrialization process on public food safety and health. In 2002, when I was a Visiting Professor at Washington University in St. Louis, I visited Monsento, the base of genetic transformation technology in St. Louis, and Natural Farm, etc., to gain a deep understanding of the impact of technological development on the global environment, ecology, politics, society, and national competition, and other global issues that are intertwined with each other. This course starts from the perspective of sociology and focuses on three directions: global environmental change, the current situation of Taiwan's environmental protection, and how to build a harmonious relationship between man and nature. Focusing on the issues arising from environmental change, the course uses news feature writing as a teaching format to train students' organizational skills in observation, analysis, and expression.
