[NEW COURSE] While energy does not depend on life, life very much depends on energy. This course will discuss some technical/scientific aspects of both energy and life. The course requires no prior knowledge of science although curiosity helps. We will discuss the sources of energy and their manifestations, transmutations and limitations, and how they support life in all its variety. We will also discuss how mankind (in contrast to all other forms of life) has appropriated many forms of energy to its advantage as well as its disadvantages (global warming and wars).
