Summary
Environmental science covers many topics. Students get questions on the environment, energy, water, and human health.
Environmental concerns
Earth's survival is debated. Famines happen despite enough food. Scientists agree on facts. The scientific method is outlined.
Water and pollution
Water moves in cycles. Carbonate-silicate cycles involve carbon dioxide. Chemical spills affect surface water and groundwater.
Energy and resources
The U.S. uses petroleum, natural gas, and coal. Earth's energy comes from sunlight. Alternative energy is from non-fossil fuel sources.
Human impact
Wildfires and forest management are discussed. Starvation is caused by food distribution issues. Parks and wilderness areas differ in management.
Key terms
- Scientific method
- A process of observations, hypothesis, controlled experiment, and conclusions.
- Hydrologic cycle
- The movement of water from Earth's surface through the atmosphere back to the surface.
- Alternative energy
- Energy produced from any source other than fossil fuels.
- Edge effect
- A phenomenon where species escape from a cut area and seek refuge in the forest border.
- Geothermal energy
- Useful conversion of natural heat from the interior of the Earth.
- Aquifer
- A rock that holds and transmits water.
