One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Concept of Environmental Assessment

Environmental assessment is the systematic process of evaluating the potential environmental impacts of a proposed activity before it is carried out. Mastering its core concepts—definition, purpose, stages, and legal context—helps students answer exam questions on planning, regulation, and mitigation strategies.
