Environmental Science at GIRNC
Environmental science studies how physical, chemical, and biological components interact within the environment and their effects on organisms. It aims to understand how the natural world works, how humans interact with it, and how to mitigate negative impacts.
Interdisciplinary Field
This field combines natural sciences (biology, chemistry, geology), social sciences (geography, economics, political science), and humanities (philosophy, ethics) to examine environmental problems from multiple perspectives.
Importance
Environmental science helps address rapid changes caused by population growth, resource depletion, and ecosystem degradation. By studying these impacts, we can find solutions to conserve resources and maintain ecosystem services like water purification, climate regulation, and waste recycling.
Scope
With rising awareness of environmental protection, conserving resources and controlling pollution have become priorities. Environmental science integrates research and multi-disciplinary approaches to combat environmental challenges and ensure sustainability.
