Careers
options in Environmental Science have increased in direct proportion
with industrialization and urbanization. Ironically the aim of the
Environmentalists has been to check the growth of polluting industries
and unnecessary urbanization. Most countries today face environmental
threats and are not only working to fight against the scourge of pollution
affecting mankind but also towards saving wildlife habitats and forests
from the ever increasing demand for land from the man and the industry.
Environment as a subject encompasses the study of basic and applied
sciences, socio-economics, ethics and law.
Small
wonder, environmental science is emerging as one of the most sought
after careers. Ten years ago, this was not the case. But things have
undergone substantial change with environmental issues taking center-stage
globally and people world over are becoming more and more aware about
the significance of clean environment. Therefore, the pricipal challenge
is conservation of biological diversity and the sustainable use of
biological resources, as well as to support the Convention on Biological
Diversity to the Earth habitable.
Apart from this another areas where Environmental
Scientist and Technologist work there are in addition fields like
Eco Journalism and Eco Tourism also available as career options. Eco
tourism would involve study of tribal culture, folk art, study of
temples and artefacts, forests as well.
