The ecosystem is the unifying concept of this course, as it is through the understanding of how these systems function and interact that the critical interface between people and the physical environment can be addressed. Key topics include: Foundations of environmental systems and societies Ecosystems and ecology Biodiversity and conservation Water and aquatic food production systems and societies Soil systems and terrestrial food production systems and societies Atmospheric systems and societies Climate change and energy production Human systems and resource use
Environmental Systems and Societies is a SL course, accessible to learners from a wide variety of educational backgrounds – although a foundation of knowledge at (I)GCSE or equivalent in science is highly desirable. Some competency in mathematics is a prerequisite: numeracy is even more important. Above all, an interest in global, regional and local ecological and environmental issues, and the ways they can be managed, is absolutely vital.
