In artificial selection humans provide the selective pressure for species to change and shape the evolution of various breeds What provides the selective pressure in natural selection?

The need for a change itself. For example, the need to migrate in order to keep up with food sources would bring an organism into another territory that their bodies might not be adjusted to. Rather than dying off, the "fittest" organism of that breed might mate with another "fit" organism, and after - guessing - 20 generations or so, genetic changes will have made that territory the most suitable environment for that organism.

The importance or significance of enviromental science?

Environmental science is important and significant because we learn about where different living things live, and why they live there. Organisms evolve in a biosphere particularly suitable to that organism. To understand an organism, we must understand why it evolved where it evolved. To understand an environment, we have to understand the complete system, and what lives in it. The current oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is destroying a living environment by killing organisms that make up the ecosystem of the Gulf. Global warming is another example of changing a global environment that supports a planet-wide ecosystem
