Study Notes

Multi-Disciplinary Nature of Environmental Science

Environmental science encompasses a wide range of disciplines due to the complex nature of the environment.
It examines the Earth, its life support systems, and various interactions within ecosystems.
The field addresses environmental problems and seeks sustainable solutions through comprehensive study.
Integration of knowledge from traditional sciences (e.g., physics, chemistry), social sciences (e.g., sociology, economics), law, and engineering is essential for a holistic understanding of environmental issues.
Life sciences play a critical role, including:
- Botany: Study of plant life and its ecosystems.
- Zoology: Study of animal life and their habitats.
- Microbiology: Study of microbial organisms and their impact on the environment.
