Environmental Science covers a range of topics that are relevant to all aspects of our day-to-day lives and are also very current in the media. Issues such as plastic in the oceans, the energy mix debate, fracking, and the population decline of over 60% of global mammal species are all covered in the study of Environmental Science. Environmental Science incorporates both physical and biological sciences and applies these fields to the understanding of environmental problems; so an interest in biology, geography, and chemistry would be a benefit to students looking at the study of Environmental Science. We follow the AQA specification which involves the study of six dynamic and relevant subject areas; these include the physical environment, conservation, pollution, and biological resources. Throughout the study of these topics, students of Environmental Science have a range of field and laboratory opportunities built into the course making this an interdisciplinary subject.
