Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Environmental engineering is a professional engineering discipline that takes from broad scientific topics like chemistry, biology, ecology, geology, hydraulics, hydrology, microbiology, and mathematics to create solutions that will protect human health and improve the quality of the environment. Environmental engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering and chemical engineering.
Environmental engineering applies scientific and engineering principles to:

protect human health and infrastructure from environmental dangers;
protect environments, both local and global, from natural and human threats, including control of waste;
improve environmental quality.Environmental engineers devise feasible solutions for waste water management, air pollution control, recycling, waste disposal, radiation protection, industrial hygiene, animal agriculture, environmental sustainability, and public health.  They design municipal water supply and industrial wastewater treatment systems, and design plans to prevent waterborne diseases and improve sanitation in urban, rural and recreational areas. They evaluate hazardous-waste management systems to evaluate the severity of such hazards, advise on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to prevent mishaps. They implement environmental engineering law, as in assessing the environmental impact of proposed construction projects.
Environmental engineers study the effect of technological advances on the environment, addressing local and worldwide environmental issues such as acid rain, global warming, ozone depletion, water pollution and air pollution from automobile exhausts and industrial sources.Many universities offer environmental engineering programs at either the department of civil engineering or chemical engineering. Environmental "civil" engineers focus on hydrology, water resources management, bioremediation, and water treatment plant design. Environmental "chemical" engineers, on the other hand, focus on environmental chemistry, advanced air and water treatment technologies and separation processes. Some subdivision of environmental engineering include natural resources engineering and agricultural engineering.
As an environmental engineer, you are responsible for creating solutions for waste management, waste-water management, air pollution control, recycling, radiation protection, environmental sustainability and public health. These solutions must protect human health and infrastructure from environmental dangers, protect the environment from natural and human threats, and improves environmental quality to the engineers best ability. Environmental Engineers with specialized law education also study the effect of modern technology on the environment locally and globally to formulate environmental engineering law to protect people from environmental issues like climate change, acid rain, ozone depletion, plastic pollution, and air pollution.
Most jurisdictions impose licensing and registration requirements for qualified environmental engineers.
