GCSE brought with it a move away from factual recall toward problem solving, data handling and critical analysis. This book reflects this move, and the emphasis on social, environmental, technological, and economic implications of science. It explores aspects of physics, chemistry and biology which have an impact on the environment, whilst also looking at earth sciences in the same context - as required by the national curriculum for science. "Structured Questions for Environmental Science" provides a range of structured questions, each dealing with a different topic, which develop a range of skills by presenting students with familiar concepts set in unfamiliar situations. The questions are all accompanied by a provisional marks scheme facilitating differentiation.
