This document discusses how various disciplines can contribute to understanding and protecting the environment. Chemistry helps minimize pollution and develop green chemicals. Physics analyzes the atmosphere and climate. Ecology shows how human actions impact the environment. Economics studies resource use. History compares past and present environments. Geology addresses pollution and natural hazards. Ethics establishes the relationship between humans and nature. Sociology examines how social patterns affect the environment. Biology helps clean waste and create biofuels. Engineering contributes to sanitation and public health.
2. • CHEMISTRY
Helps us to understand the molecular interaction in the system. The green chemistry helps us to minimize
the effect of pollution and environmental deterioration chemistry researches into the core cause and
develops methods, techniques and tools that reduce the chemical disposal into the environment. The
chemistry has also contributed to developing green chemicals that either degrade compounds to
innocuous products or to recover them for further use.
• PHYSICS
We use physics to analyze the contents of the atmosphere, to figure out how the sun's radiation interacts
with gases in our atmosphere, to measure the heat inputs and outputs from space, and to predict the
weather. Physicists have invented many instruments for data analyzing that was very difficult to analyze
the data without high tech instruments.
• ECOLOGY
Ecology helps us to understand how our actions affect the environment. It shows the individuals the extentEcology helps us to understand how our actions affect the environment. It shows the individuals the extent
of damage we cause to the environment. Lack of understanding of ecology has led to the degradation of
land and the environment. It has also led to the extinction and endangerment of certain species.
ECONOMICS
Economics studies how people use resources to provide goods and services in the face of various supply and
demand. Economies receive inputs from the environment that enable human society to function.
HISTORY
It helps us to know about the environment of centuries ago in which our ancestors lived. It is profitable to us
that we can compare about that’s time environment and the present time environment. After
comparing them we cam determine that howmuch the environment’s conditions are improved or
spoiled and after determining that we can take a necessarry step towards the environment that should
be perfectly taken.
3. GEOLOGY
identifies and characterizes process regarding continuous Earth modification, considering human being as
one of the main actors in that change. Promotes and participates in the instrumental elaboration of
environmental management. . It supports diagnosis and mitigation of pollution problems, minimizing
possible environment degradation or maximizing the possibility of correct use of natural or modified
environment. Also deals with natural phenomenon dangers and risks.
ETHICS
Environmental ethics are the key features of the environmental studies that establish relationship between
humans and the earth. With environmental ethics we can ensure that we are doing our part to keep
enviornment safe and protected. The principle of environmental ethics brings out the fact that all the life
forms on Earth have the right to live. Hence, by destroying nature, we deny life forms this right. The
importance of environmental ethics consists of many things. The use of chemicals effects both
vegetation and humans alike.vegetation and humans alike.
SOCIOLOGY
Sociologists can provide an account of how patterns of human behavior create pressure on the natural
environment. The levels of pollution produced by industrialized countries would cause catastrophe if
repeated in the world's poorer, non-industrial nations. It is typically defined as the sociological study of
societal-environmental interactions.
BIOLOGY
biology can help scientists in understanding how microorganisms can clean up environmental waste and
create biofuels. Systems biology can lead to predictions about how to make targeted changes to
microbial networks to increase sustainability.
ENGINEERING
Environmental Engineering is especially omnipresent and essential especially in developing countries with
poor sanitation and garbage disposal. As such, environmental engineering also contributes to the overall
health and safety conditions of an entire population.
