4.9/5 (29605 ratings)

Description:What interests you most about your environment? Are you concerned about water pollution? Air quality? Energy production? Forest fires? Space exploration? Those interests and questions matter. This practical guide for readers of any age who are interested in Environmental Science allows for readers to start with their scientific curiosity and follow their questions about the environment. A basic primer on Environmental Science, this book is organized into units based on the five classical scientific elements of matter: Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Atmosphere. This organization allows readers to discover each specific element individually and explore how each connects with the others. With a strong emphasis on stimulating discussion and activity, each unit in the book also includes discussion questions and pro-con sections, as well as several field reports based on Forrest Mims' real-life experiments and observations. Equally usable as a classroom textbook or supplemental resource, or as a personal study book, this volume practically challenges readers to consider their own direct and active role in caring for and understanding the environment. Environmental Science: An Explorer's Guide is illustrated richly throughout with photographs from the author's personal collection, gathered directly from his over 35 years of experience as a prolific and well-regarded amateur scientist.Forrest M. Mims III is the bestselling author of Getting Started in Electronics and Engineer's Notebook. He is also the author of more than 15 peer-reviewed scientific papers, and he has written more than 1,500 columns and articles for many magazines and newspapers, including Nature, Science, Scientific American, and MAKE Magazine. Mims has been assigned major scientific field studies and projects by NOAA, NASA and EPA. His development of a handheld instrument for measuring the ozone layer earned a prestigious Rolex award in 1993, and Discover magazine has named Mims one of the "50 Best Brains in Science." In 2018 Rolex sponsored Mims' innovative study of solar UV across Hawaii Island.
