The environmental science is a discipline science whose main objective is to seek and know the relationships that keeps the human being with himself and with nature. It involves a multidisciplinary study area encompasses elements such as the study of environmental problems and the proposed models for sustainable development.

Research and Applications
Due to the cross-curricular and curricular interlocking work of environmental science, there are many specialists in research, teaching and practice, which are mostly active in many areas.
At all stages of its development man was closely associated with the world. With the emergence of highly industrialized society human intervention in nature has increased sharply, and threatens to become dangerous in the near future become a global threat to mankind.
It identified a number of the most important processes worsening ecological situation on the planet. The most extensive and significant is the chemical pollution of the environment is not her inherent nature of chemical substances. Among them - the gaseous and particulate pollutants of industrial and domestic origin. In particular, the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases the undesirable trend of rising average temperature of the planet. Alarmingly continuing pollution of the oceans with oil and oil products, which can cause significant violations gas and water exchange between the hydrosphere and atmosphere. There is no doubt and negative effects of soil pollution by pesticides.
In the last decade, environmental pollution in many regions of the earth caused a sharp rise in human diseases, high infant mortality and violations of psychophysical development of the younger generation.
Environmental Sustainability
Healthy ecosystems provide goods and services to humans and other organisms. There are two major ways of reducing negative human impact and enhancing ecosystem services:
a) Environmental Management. This tactic employed mainly direct information from earth science, environmental science and conservation biology. However, this operation is the endpoint of a number of causative factors for human consumption started. Another tactic is based on demand management of resources.
b) Management of resource consumption by humans, an indirect tactic is based primarily on information obtained by economics.
Effects of environmental hazards on humans
This research will aim to address chemical pollution, in addition to pollution of natural bodies and oceans.
Chemical Pollution
People pollute the atmosphere for thousands of years, but the consequences of the use of fire, which he used throughout this period, were not significant. Primary air pollution is not a problem because ...
