Chapter SUmmary
The environment is everything around us, living and nonliving. The key component to environmental sc science is ecology: how living things interact. We use 3 scientific principles: dependence on solar energy, biodiversity, and chemical cycling and nutrient cycling. These principles play a large role in reducing pollution and using renewable resources. Our ecological footprint The amount of land and water needed to supply a person or an area with renewable resources such as food and water. We must reduce the main causes of environmental problems, including: population growth, wasteful and unsustainable resources, poverty, failure to include the harmful environmental costs of goods and services, and increasing isolation from nature. Overall, each individual must learn how to live more sustainably in order to reduce environmental issues.
