Branches of Earth Science and Their Studies

In this video tutorial, Lauren introduces herself and discusses the essential question: what are the branches of Earth science? The video covers three main branches: geology, meteorology, and environmental science. Geology involves the study of Earth and rocks, meteorology focuses on weather and atmosphere, and environmental science examines Earth's resources like sun and oil. The session concludes with a review of these branches.
