1. Ecology - It is the study of how living things interact with each other and their environment.
2. Environmental Science - A branch involved in the study of nature’s physical, chemical, and biological systems and how they work together.
3. Environmental Chemistry - Environmental Chemistry studies the chemicals in nature and their effects on the environment, including pollution and its impact.
4. Environmental Biology - It is the study of how plants, animals, and humans interact with their surroundings and live together in ecosystems.
5. Atmospheric Science - Atmospheric Science is the study of the air, weather patterns, and climate.
6. Geoscience - It is the study of Earth's structure, rocks, soil, and natural processes like earthquakes and erosion.
7. Social Environmental Studies - This branch looks at how humans affect the environment and ways to live sustainably.
8. Environmental Policy and Management - Study of laws, policies, and practices to protect and manage natural resources.
