The Environmental Studies specification will enable you to gain a deep and well-informed insight into the environment and the scientific processes that control and affect it. You will develop an understanding of how different events and cycles within the environment interrelate; how they influence subsequent environmental events; the human impacts on these events and cycles; and the strategies that can be used to minimise the problems caused. Key topics include wildlife conservation, pollution, global climate change and sustainability. You will carry out extensive practical work, both within the laboratory and, wherever possible, out in the environment. Integral to each unit is the development and use of practical skills relevant to the study of the environment. Assessment will include the planning and carrying out of investigations and the interpretation of data.C in maths required and C in Biology or Chemistry OR CC in Double Award Science (This must be Core and additional not core/applied)
