Science is the study of the physical and natural world through observations and experiments. Science is all around us. Right now, the fact that you exist and are in the process of reading this is science. The process of creating the air we breathe - also science. The food we enjoy, water we drink , clothes we wear, are all based on science. Looking up into the atmosphere gives us a glimpse into astronomy, another branch of science. Science is everywhere and is one of the most important topics you can study.

Today, one of the most popular areas of science is environmental science. Environmental science is the study of our planet and the environment in which we live.
