Silent Spring is a seminal work that sparked revolutionary change and alerted the masses to the many dangers of indiscriminately polluting our environment. Today we removed A Self-Teaching Guide, which is out of date having not been revised since 2005, and Silent Spring. For a deeper dive into the subject, Chemistry of the Environment and Energy and Civilization: A History both offer excellent takes on two facets worth exploring, chemistry and energy, respectively. A Global Concern is also suitable for high schoolers taking AP classes. If you're a non-science major or a layperson, then accessible introductory volumes like the newly-added Principles of Environmental Science and Environment: The Science Behind the Stories, as well as Environmental Science: A Global Concern are all great places to start. It is a versatile choice if you're looking for diverse career opportunities, as well as a fascinating subject for the autodidact who wants to know more about how our world is changing and how humans are participating in that change. Environmental science is an interdisciplinary subject that combines topics from Earth science, biology, agricultural and energy sciences, economics, chemistry, and more.
