    Thank you very much for this video! Very informative. I'm just now getting into my educational phase after being in the military for the better part of a decade, and environmental sciences has always been something I've been very interested in, specifically on the policy/law side. I'm afraid that I'd be starting late (currently 32). Do you think it would be difficult to transition into this career with little starting experience at my age? I have marketable skills outside of what my educational goals might be, so I'm not entirely worried about that, I'm just interested in hearing what your thoughts might be on someone starting (realistically at 36/37).

    Trashie is TERRIBLE. They say you the bag is for up to 15 pounds of items, but they only pay the shipping on two pounds. I spent $20 for the bag, and then an ADDITIONAL $68 to ship my items back. What a scam. Also, I have been contacting their support for days and no one has responded. DONT DO IT.

    The job market for everyone is honestly pretty awful, to the point where it’s made many news headlines. Many business and computer science graduates are struggling just as much, which is crazy because these are two of the professions that just 5 years ago were considered ‘safe.’ In my area, environmental scientists are in very high demand statistically (this is in FL too, so I image it’s less demand than California and other blue states). However, most jobs require the ‘1-3 years experience.’ So I’m afraid we all have to suck up the unpaid internship during uni and poor paying first job. At the very least we are actually doing something fulfilling guys. IMO better to struggle for those two years than be stuck in something we hate for LIFE. Fulfillment > 200k a year salary in New York City IMO.

    Certifications are much more vast than what you listed here. It depends on the individual’s strengths. I’m a technician, I started as a pest control technician, and now I am an asphalt quality control technician. I’ve used those jobs to express the need for each industry to work on reducing emissions and the other aspects of sustainability. Next I’m looking to become an EV charging station technician before becoming a dental hygienist. In all of these industries, and in all my free time, I have always worked on sustainability. Even if it wasn’t in my job title ;)

    The thing about *most* ecology roles requiring advanced degrees is not true in the government and private sector, which will make up most the available jobs! Though I guess this would blend in with 'environmental scientists.' Only roles in academia require the Masters and for leading research the PhD. However most the money isn't in research honestly. But the research is absolutely some of the most fun work you'll ever do.

    Hi Maddy, environmental engineer here. I'm glad you made this video because I've always wondered how different environmental engineers were from environmental scientists. It's good to hear from someone who actually graduated with a degree from environmental science rather than guessing and googling what they actually do. Keep up the good work! 😃

    • @SustainabilityWithMaddy
      @SustainabilityWithMaddy 17 днів тому

      I am glad it was so helpful! They are pretty similar, and you can likely get the same job with either track. If you want to stay in academia or research, I would go natural resources conservation. If you want to go into consulting, I would go the environmental science track!

    It is very important for any person to find something to strive for and fight for no matter what the circumstances. Once you set the right goal for yourself, making decisions will be easy and fun. What used to seem like an excruciating chore will turn into an enjoyable activity. Go where your labour will be needed! Go where there is money and where your work will be decently paid! Sooner or later you will have to co-operate with people of different nationalities and cultures. To make your business successful, you should learn a foreign language. I would like to recommend to you Yuriy Ivantsiv's workshop "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips on learning foreign language". This book will help you to structure and organise your individual language learning process, will give you the opportunity to independently determine the methodology of language learning, which will become interesting and unburdensome. In this amazing book everyone will find a lot of useful information: how to learn foreign languages, how to memorise information, how to deal with culture shock, what to pay attention to when travelling to another country. I am convinced that the book "Polyglot Notes" should be in the bag of every business person, school and college student, and tourist. The most important thing is that the book gives a good motivation. Don't be afraid to do something to realise your dreams! If people realised that fears have no connection with reality, everyone would live a much better life. Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video. Your videos motivate me and give me new ideas!
