Environmental Science Science Fair Projects ListEnvironmental Science

Environmental Science is the study of relations between organisms and their environment. This includes interactions among chemical, biological, and physical components of the environment. Environmental science also takes into account non-scientific studies such as law, social science, and economics.

All projects

  • Capillarity of Soils

    To compare the rise of water by capillarity in sandy, clayey, and loamy soil


  • Clean Cleaners

    To determine whether vinegar is just as effective as a cleaning agent as a chemical-based supermarket cleaner.


  • Cleaning Oil Spills

    To replicate the effects of an oil spill and apply an effective system to clean it up.


  • Colors And Temperature

    To determine if the external color of a structure can affect the internal temperature of the structure under different environmental conditions.


  • Make a Compost Pile

    To make a compost pile and explain how a compost pile can help aid the environment by recycling used items rather than trashing them and sending them to a landfill.


  • Make your own sundial

    Learn to find the time of the day without the help of a clock!


  • Measuring Air Pollution

    To determine the amount of foreign particles in the air in a specific area.


  • Ocean Life & Oil Spills

    To demonstrate the effect that an oil spill will have on marine life.


  • Orange Water Volume

    To determine what percentage of an orange is made up of water and what percentage is made up of solids. When you're done with this experiment you'll be able to answer the question "how much water is in my orange?"


  • Oxygen & Photosynthesis

    To show that oxygen gas is released during photosynthesis


  • Water pH

    To determine the pH level of both city water and well water to determine which is more basic and which is more acidic.
