Science is important, its so important that the subject is mandatory to be studied around the globe.  Its a main element that lets us know about our origin and if you get even deeper, you can learn about every other living species on Earth.

It includes myth and history such as the development of our Universe, the stars in it and our planet as well.  Science can also tell us about the dinosaurs, something I've always been fascinated in.

When it comes down to it, science is one of the most important categories, universally.  Its as important as us being here, as important as what this essay means to me.

Science is the study of anything that can be investigated almost everything that can be observed or detected, and science as a whole shapes the way we understand the universe, our planet, ourselves and other living things.  Science plays an important role in the things we use or consume every days. Science gives us a full understanding of the way the world around us works.

Science is all around us.  It is a part of everything we do in our daily lives.  When you drive your car, science is behind it.  When you turn on your television, science is behind it.  When you take medicine, science is behind that, too.  Science can be explained in everything we do.

Science helps us to answer question about the world around us.  How do things work?  Why are thing the way they are?  These are questions that can be answered with science.  It helps us to understand the things we use everyday.

Inventions and discoveries in science help us to improve our way of living.  Advances in medicine, help people to live longer.  Advances in technology, makes our lives easier such as computers, efficient cars, video games, and airplanes.  Science also teaches us how to react safely to the world around us.  Before studying science, we know that it is unhealthy to smoke it is smart to eat the right foods and exercise, and not to stay outside during a lighting storm. 

Science is also knowledge.  We could all be scientist to find answers to our questions.  Thinking scientifically, helps you to understand nature and the world around us.  Science affects all of us.

Lastly, science is important, because it is fun.  You can do your own experiments to help you explain things.  It is exciting because it changes all the time, and there are always new things to learn and discover.

Science is very important to me and the people on the earth.  Without science what would we do?  Stand around all day staring blankly at something we really don't understand.  I am very thankful for science.

 The earth without science would be very dull.  All there would be is animals, grass, trees and us the people who just run and stare.  There would be no electricity, nobody would be aware of the temperature.  We wouldn't know the time of day or what the day, month or year was.  We wouldn't know what the stars and moon were that glowed so bright as well as for the sun. 

Thanks to science we are aware.

Science is important because it explains our whole world and universe. Chemical science explains the air that we breath and physical science explains why we need it.  Chemical science is in the smallest microscopic particle and the larges sun in the galaxy.  Physical science is in the paper I am using to write this report.  It's hard to imagine what our modern world would be like without the advances and understanding that science and scientist have given us.  All the things we enjoy like TV and computers couldn't exist without science.  Science is important because without  science we wouldn't understand this incredible world.

Do you like science?  Well I know I do.  There is a question most people want to know an answer for which is, "Why is science important?"  Science is important in so many ways.  Scientist study alot and they do so much research to try to get an answer for a problem.  Science can also be used in different ways to find an answer for a question.  Later I am going to tell you reason and information about the importance of science.  My science teacher Mrs. Stallings has been teaching me so much about science that is so beneficial to me.  She's done experiments with us to show my class about science.  Science helps us in so many ways.  You use science everyday and you sometimes don't realize your using.  Now I'll tell you about science

Science can be used in so many ways.  Science is important because we wouldn't know where we are without the help of technology which is made by the help of science.  People may think science is classified knowledge but it's acquiring knowledge.  Science has four basic principals which are determine, empiricism, parsimony, and testability.  Science is important because the human nature is a curious nature and wants to know how and why.  Science is important because science helps you solve a problem (sometimes) or it can help find the right ingredients, it improves our health (vaccination), makes life easier (technology, car, tv) and more.

That is why science is important.  Science is an abstract word.  Science helps us allot.  Remember sciences is just an abstract word.

There are tons of reasons that is interesting.  Science is everything.  Technology, matter, inventions, math and scence are related.  Without science human kind will be nothing.  There are so many instification that I can't even explain.  highly advance technology can be made or built by science.  We might even find intelligent life that might be found from outer space.

You might even be using something that is science.  Science can even save your life.  Doctors might use or build new technology to save their patients life.   They might find new cures thanks to science.

Science is so complicating but it is so very important.

Remember that!!!!

Science is important because it plays an important role in our daily lives.  What happens if Alexander Graham Bell didn't invent the telephone we would have to walk to visit our friends.  What happens if the elevator wasn't invented and we had to walk to the top of the Empire State Building.  If we didn't have any meteorologist we would not know the weather and would not know what to wear.  If we didn't have the light bulb invented we would not be able to read with the small light of a candle.  Also if we didn't have medicine to cure diseases like polio and the flu many people would have died.  The world became more prosper because of science.  The world wouldn't be here if it wasn't for science.  Inventions by great people made this world a better place.  This is why science is important.

Science is important because without science we would still be like cavemen.  Science helps us in plenty of things.  It helps us live and understand ourselves and the world around us.  For example without science no one would have the knowledge to create things such as gameboys, computers and all of the other advanced things in our world.  Science helps us do everything.  If it weren't for science we would not have light to help us see in the dark.  Science helped us create cures for lots of diseases, and scientists still are finding ways for diseases, and scientist still are finding ways for diseases such as cancer to be cured.

Science helps you make informed opinions and decisions about discoveries and issues.  It determines how the natural world operates, and gives us information that we could use to live in the world around us safely.  For example science teaches us that grease causes fires in the kitchen, and that staying outside in lighting storms is dangerous.

Science is the basis of technology.  Technology is more advanced if you compare today to just a few years ago.  Technology gives people easier ways of life.  Farmers have machines that manage crops for them, doctors have more knowledge of medicines and diseases and technology has given people more opportunities on how to use and enjoy their time.  Technology has also caused pollution, because products upgrade so fast that once you buy something new, it becomes outdated in a short period of time and people throw it out to get a new one.  So science is also about reducing pollution and teaching us to understand the dangers of pollution.  Science is also finding alternatives to create less pollution.  This includes electric cars , cars that burn vegetable oil instead of gas, and cars that use hydrogen instead of gas.

There are just a few of the ways that science is used to help people, to help the planet and to make the world a better place.

Science is the most important thing in time and space and it is linked to everything.  Science doesn't only answer most of mankind's questions but it can warn people that a natural disaster such as a volcanic eruption, an earthquake or a twister is approaching.

Science still has many other uses such as medicine or surgery.  Science has saved thousands of lives from influenza and the USA has wiped out polio.  Science has made it easier for surgeons to operate with lasers rather than sharp painful tools. 

There is a bright future ahead.  Cars, vans and trucks are safer and still improving and space age appliances are on their way.  Thank God for science.

Science is important because it is everything around.  It is the knowledge of how the things operate around us.  All things are made up of matter.  Combining atoms and elements make different compounds.  Our world consist of all of this. Things are also classified in different groups such as animal kingdom and planet kingdom.  As we look around we could find the science in everything.  The oxygen we breath is a gas among many other gases.  The body is made up of cells, tissues, organs, and systems.  Scientist are working everyday to help cure diseases, which a research science.  They create chemical combines to control illnesses.  The waters rocks, soils, plants and animals are all parts of the study of science. life, as it is science.  We should all know about the world around through science

Science is important to me because it is involved in  everything we do.  From the time I get up in the morning to the time I go to bed, I see science everywhere.  The trees on my block give off oxygen, the television I watch uses electricity, the food I eat is processed to make it safe to eat, and the car my mom drives uses combustion and gears to get me to where I have to go.  Science makes our lives safer, easer, and more interesting.  W can see the word either by television or by using an airplane to take up there.  Science is all important because it is involved in our bodies.  Our bodies are made up of many particles, atoms and blood cells.  This part of science gives us life.  Gravity allows us to be grounded on Earth and lets us have fun playing sports where we know the ball will always come back thanks to gravity.  Without science we would not be here today.  Science is exciting because there are always new and interesting things to discover and learn about ourselves and the environment.

I think science is important to the world.  It is important to the world because lets say one animal had a disease then the next animal would get the disease then by all the spreading then most of the animals from that population or area would be gone.  Science is also important because if a car let out to much pollution to the air the scientists would help the company make cars that can't harm the environment as much.  Scientist also help doctors make sure medicine isn't harmful to people and also helps make medication to help cure diseases.  That is how science and scientist are helpful to your community, environment, or habitat.

I think science is important because science is a very important use of the world.  Science is important to teach kids.  Scientist use science .  Science teaches us protons, electrons, cells, organisms and even electricity.  Science helps us with our body if we are sick.  Science predicts our everyday weather.  Science is the most important thing in the world.  Science helps us with electricity and powers almost everything in the world.  Cells are in your body and that is science almost everything in the world is science.  This is why I think science is important in the entire world.
