Overview
What makes a person healthy? What philosophical approach best promotes healthcare? These questions guided us throughout this project. We explored three different philosophical approaches and the biology behind a healthy person.
HumanitiesFor the humanities portion of this project we learned about three different philosophies utilitarianism, libertarianism and egalitarianism. Each philosophy brought new ideas and conversation to our class. At the end of the semester we wrote one final paper on which philosophy would best promote healthcare for a case study.

BiologyFor the biology portion of this project I explored the amount of pollution in our air by measuring the amount of carbon dioxide from different locations around San Diego. I also learned about the affects of poor air quality on humans, but more specifically how pollution can cause and or worsen asthma.
