What Is Earth Science?

Article by: Hobart M. King, Ph.D., RPG

Introduction
Earth Science is the study of the Earth and its neighbors in space. It is an exciting science
with many interesting and practical applications. Some Earth scientists use their
knowledge of the Earth to locate and develop energy and mineral resources. Others study
the impact of human activity on Earth's environment, and design methods to protect the
planet. Some use their knowledge about Earth processes such as volcanoes,
earthquakes, and hurricanes to plan communities that will not expose people to these
dangerous events.
