Colleges with environmental science programs

From the Princeton Review:

It's becoming clear that the problems of the twenty-first century are the most complicated we've ever faced. But while the public is just learning about many environmental issues, students have been studying them, debating them, and working on the solutions-in any number of ways, from researching sustainable energies to community activism, to volunteering in the community, to things like just plain recycling.

Environmental Science combines study in biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, exploring the relationships between these areas to acquire a greater understanding of how our environment works as a whole. Environmental Studies includes the examination of policy, law, and organizations to study how humans interact with their natural and social environments.
