NATURE OF ENVIRONEMENTAL STUDIES   

                                (  E.vs  )                                     

Environment means surroundings.the environment includes both physical or non-living(abiotic) and living(biotic) environment.

Defination; environment is the sum total of air,water and land and the interrelationship that exist among them and with the human beings,other living organisms and property.

Environment includes physical surroundings(abiotic) like:

1.      Force of nature like wind or gravity.

2.      Condition like time factor,temperature and light.

3.      Non living materials like soil and water.

Physical and chemical nature of abiotic components are understood with the help of some other subjects like we study:

1.      Geography

2.      Physics

3.      Chemistery

4.      Biology

Some subjects like maths,statistics and CS help in modelling and management of E.vs. waste reduction and plollution control is greately helped by subjects like civil engineering,hydraulics and chemical engineering. Effective protection of environment can be done by enforcing the environmental law implemented by the govt.  From time to time. As environmental problem is occurring all over the globe.

Living environment(biotic) includes biological surroundings. They undergo reactions,intractions and inter-related actions.

Various branches of LIFE SCIENCES which helps in understanding the environment are :

1.      Botant

2.      Zoology

3.      Microbiology

4.      Genetics

5.      Bio chemistery

6.      Bio technology

Because effective study of environment requires knowledge of many subjects it can be considered as a multideciplinary subject.
