- 19. Environmental sciences comprise the scientific disciplines, or parts of them, that consider the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of the environment. From: Encyclopedia of Ecology, 2008
- 20. Environmental Science as a discipline understands the interactions of the life-support system and the human sphere. Students in the Environmental Science learn how humans interact with the environment, particularly on issues and concerns with the aim reducing stress and degradation of our life-support system – our environment.
- 21. Students in the Environmental Science are constantly challenged and interested in the issues and problems confronting our environment. Subjects in the Environmental Science always emphasize on what causes these problems and how to respond to it applying the Environmental Science discipline. The Concept of Environmental Science (Source: Miller and Spoolman, 2009)

- 32. abs-cbn news How humanity responds to the problem is anchored on humanity’s sense of views and values (ethics) towards the environment.
- 33. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE APPROACH IMAQPRESS Transdisciplinary Concepts ...
- 34. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE APPROACH ⬧ Multidisciplinary - contributes ideas or acts according to his/her discipline without a clear interaction with the work of other members of the team ⬧ Interdisciplinary - integration of contributions from various sciences for a holistic understanding of the problem ⬧ Transdisciplinary - does not recognize boundaries of disciplines but a way of blending and collaboration of different disciplines to understand a real-world problem

Perspectives (views) ⬧ ANTHROPOCENTRISM - a human-centered perspective on environment, i.e. non-human components of the environment instruments or means to satisfy the needs and wants of the humanity ⬧ BIOCENTRISM - life-centered view of the environment that puts equal importance on biological components, i.e. are interdependent with other components of the environment ⬧ ECOCENTRISM - environment-centered or nature- centered view, i.e. all these components are interconnected.
