Environmental Chemistry

Instructions:

Life-giving chemicals move through the environment via complex interactions with living and nonliving things. Together, these interactions make up a natural cycle.

Natural resources are those things provided by the environment that support life and satisfy people's wants and needs. Humans face the issue of balancing the use of natural resources to satisfy wants and needs against the preservation of the environment.
