Environmental Systems and Societies

Environmental Systems and Societies (ESS) is an interdisciplinary field that examines the interactions between natural environments and human societies. It explores how ecological systems function, the impact of human activity on the environment, and sustainable practices to manage resources. ESS encourages critical thinking about environmental issues, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution, and promotes solutions that balance ecological health with social and economic needs. By integrating knowledge from environmental science, social science, and ethics, ESS fosters a holistic understanding of the challenges we face and the importance of sustainability for future generations.
