AP Environmental Science (APES) is the interaction of sciences that attempts to explain how life on the Earth is sustained, what leads to environmental problems, how humans are responsible and interact with these elements and how these problems can be solved. Many sciences are important to environmental science. These include Biology, Geology, Hydrology, Climatology, Meteorology, Oceanography, and Soil Science. In addition, APES students learn about environmental laws, environmental regulations, and environmental history.
