Environment
The environment is where we live. It is where all the animals, insects, plants and other living things make their place in the world. It is everything that makes up our surroundings including the air we breathe, the water we drink and the land we live upon. Scientists study many different parts of the environment to learn how these systems work. Learn more about the environment.
