Description



Book Synopsis



People have been working to study, protect, and improve the environment for generations. But careers in the environmental sciences have seen a dramatic increase in the past seventy-five years. In a time when everyone is talking about climate change, renewable resources, sustainability, conservation, and more, career opportunities in the environmental sciences are increasing globally.

Exploring Environmental Sciences Careers digs into developing skills and qualifications for careers in areas such as climatology, meteorology, animal welfare, and air quality engineering. You'll learn about choosing a career path and utilizing your school experience to prepare for a career in any branch of the environmental sciences. You'll also find information about pay ranges, skill development, and hiring outlooks, and read up on the history of the environmental sciences, why it's important to start thinking about and preparing for your career early, and the benefits of experiences such as volunteering, job shadowing, and worksite visits.
