Loose-leaf

Description

For many students with no science background, environmental geology may be one of the only science courses they ever take.

Living With Earth: An Introduction to Environmental Geology is ideal for those students, fostering a better understanding of how they interact with Earth and how their actions can affect Earth's environmental health.

The informal, reader-friendly presentation is organized around a few unifying perspectives: how the various Earth systems interact with one another; how Earth affects people (creating hazards but also providing essential resources); and how people affect Earth.

Greater emphasis is placed on environment and sustainability than on geology, unlike other texts on the subject.

Essential scientific foundations are presented - but the ultimate goal is to connect students proactively to their role as stakeholders in Earth's future.
