The multidisciplinary nature of environmental study arises from the
recognition that environmental issues are multifaceted and
interconnected, requiring a comprehensive understanding and
approach. Environmental study draws upon various disciplines to
explore the intricate relationships between humans and the natural
world. Ecology provides insights into the interplay between
organisms, their habitats, and the ecological processes that sustain
life. Earth sciences contribute by investigating the physical aspects
of the Earth, including geology, climatology, and geophysics, to
comprehend the Earth's systems, climate patterns, and natural
resource distribution. Environmental chemistry examines the
presence, behavior, and impact of pollutants in the environment,
aiding in the identification, analysis, and mitigation of
environmental contaminants.
