Environmental Science is an interdisciplinary study of how the earth (nature) works, how humans interact with the environment and how humans can live more sustainably. A key
component of environmental science is ecology, the branch of biology that focuses on how living organisms interact with the living and nonliving parts of their environment. The major
focus of ecology is the study of ecosystem. An ecosystem is a biological community of organisms within the defined area of land or volume of water that interacts with one another
and with the nonliving chemical and physical factors in their environment.
