This document appears to be an exam for an environmental engineering course, as it contains multiple choice questions and short answer questions on various topics in environmental science. Some of the questions covered are on air and water pollution, biodiversity, ecosystems, climate change issues like global warming and ozone depletion. Students were asked to attempt one out of two questions in several sections that require explaining concepts like benefits and problems of dams, structure and functions of grassland ecosystems, and ways for conservation of biodiversity. The last question asks to write short notes on topics related to population growth, urban energy problems, global warming, ozone depletion, disaster management, values of biodiversity and food chains.
