Environmental Science, High School
Environmental Science: Sustaining Your World was created specifically for your high school environmental science course. With a central theme of sustainability included throughout, authors G. Tyler Miller and Scott Spoolman have focused content and included student activities on the core environmental issues of today while incorporating current research on solutions-based outcomes. National Geographic images and graphics support the text, while National Geographic Explorers and scientists who are working in the field to solve environmental issues of all kinds tell their stories of how real science and engineering practices are used to solve real-world environmental problems. Ensure that your students learn critical thinking skills to evaluate all sides of environmental issues while gaining knowledge of the Core Ideas from the NGSS and applying that knowledge to real science and engineering practices and activities.

Environmental Science, Honors
"Inspiring people to care about the planet …" In the new edition of Environmental Science authors Tyler Miller and Scott Spoolman have partnered with the National Geographic Society to develop a text designed to equip students with the inspiration and knowledge they need to make a difference solving today's environmental issues. Exclusive content highlights important work of National Geographic Explorers and Grantees and features over 180 new photos, maps, and illustrations that bring course concepts to life. The text's concept-centered approach transforms complex environmental topics and issues into key concepts that students will understand and remember. Using sustainability as their central theme, the authors emphasize natural capital, natural capital degradation, solutions, trade-offs, and the importance of individuals. As a result, students learn how nature works, how they interact with it, and how humanity has sustained—and can continue to sustain—its relationship with the earth by applying nature's lessons to economies and individual lifestyles. Engaging features such as "Core Case Studies" and "Connections" boxes demonstrate the relevance of issues and encourage critical thinking. Updated with new learning tools, the latest content, and an enhanced art program, this highly flexible book allows teachers to vary the order of chapters and sections within chapters to meet the needs of their classes.
