This book has been developed especially to meet the requirements of the Cambridge O Level syllabus, 5014, and the IGCSE® syllabus, 0680, for Environmental Management, a subject highly relevant in the modern context, where the Earth’s resources and life‑sustaining systems are under threat because of human impact. The scope of the book is international in its approach, albeit with a focus on South Asia.The aim is to enable students to understand and appreciate the interdependence of the Earth’s natural systems and learn to best manage them for the future.
The book, following the sequence of the syllabus, has four main chapters:
- Lithosphere
- Hydrosphere
- Atmosphere
- Biosphere
These are further subdivided into units that cover the essential aspects of each under four main
headings:
- Resources
- Development
- Impact
- Management
The up to date text is supported by tables, graphs, and diagrams, and complemented by appropriately selected four-colour illustrations. Case studies give students a local as well as global perspective on ecological problems and their possible solutions.
The Teaching Guide provides valuable support for effective teaching of a new and highly relevant course.
