APES CH.1 NOTES Environment- our living and nonliving surroundings, with which we interact in a complex web of relationships that connect us to one another and the world we live in. Environmental Science- the study of how humans interact with the living and nonliving parts of their environment. It includes ideas from the natural sciences, social sciences, political science, and humanities. The 3 goals of environmental science are to learn how nature works, understand how we interact with the environment, and to find ways to deal with environmental problems and live more sustainably.
