This online course in Environmental Chemistry will be of value to you, if you are concerned about the world around you and work or would like to work tn global warming, climate change or other environmentally related areas. This could be as an enthusiastic amateur involved in the environmental movement, or as a professional environmentalist concerned with the ecological balance of the world. It should also be of benefit to private firms, individuals plus public servants, involved in town planning and even bureaucrats and politicians needing an in-depth appreciation of environmental science, when considering new policies. Scientists proficient in other areas of environmental studies, wanting to expand their knowledge into understanding the chemistry behind the impact of human activities on the world, or the environmental illness caused by potentially harmful factors, will also find this program of benefit to them.
