Ecology, chemistry, plant science, mineralogy, oceanography, limnology, soil science, geology and physical geography, atmospheric science, and other related fields are all part of environmental science's interdisciplinary approach to studying the environment and finding solutions to environmental problems. An integrated, quantitative, and multidisciplinary approach to studying ecological systems is provided by environmental science, which developed out of natural history and medicine during the Enlightenment. To better comprehend human connections, perspectives, and policies regarding the natural world, environmental studies have increasingly turned to the social sciences. A key goal of environmental engineers is to develop and implement.

In the 1960s and 1970s, ecological science emerged as an active field of scientific inquiry due to three main factors:

• The need for a multidisciplinary approach to analyzing complex environmental problems.
• The arrival of substantial environmental laws requires specific environmental protocols of investigation.
• The growing public awareness of the need to take action in addressing environmental issues.
• Solutions that enhance environmental quality in all its forms.
