Abstract

Mathematical problems involving basic calculations, percentages, ratios, tables, pie charts, and graphs are used to illustrate environmental problems such as population growth, resource scarcity, air and water pollution, and electric power demand. The integration of math, science, and environmental education allows students to benefit from all three areas simultaneously. Science encompasses the art of questioning, investigating, hypothesizing, and discovering. Math is the language that provides clarity, objectivity and understanding. Problem solving, creative thinking in math and science, basic knowledge, decision making, and environmental training are available over a period of time in a properly designed and directed activity. Teachers are also more interested when they use methods and concepts that are more familiar
