The Environmental Biology credential documents competencies that include professionals working in environmental biology and require a solid understanding of major concepts including ecology, human population and development issues, biological principles related to water and soil, agriculture production, pest control, energy concepts, and pollution. They must also understand economic issues and considerations for policy development. Many of these professionals work in sustainability and urban planning and development arenas requiring an environmental biology foundation. Specifically, this badge demonstrates the earner's ability to explain the main schools of thought about the causes of demographic transition including how the factors relate to each other, the impact of development on fertility, the needs for sustainable actions, and potential strategies for improvement.
