    I can’t even say how helpful this was. I just switched to environmental science because i have a passion for animals. There is not one animal specifically that I only want to help. I want to help animals and the environment as one big whole. This video really helped me know this is the right path for me. I know with this major I will be able to make the impact I so badly want to. I really couldn’t be more excited.

      I am so excited at the expansion of this field! I was an animal-loving pre-vet major in undergrad and switched midway because I was unhappy. I never looked back after switching to EHS. I continued through grad school and am now about 10 months out from having a phd in it :) Still love animals - my two cats and one dog have kept me sane through all of this. Best of luck to you in your studies as an environmental health scientist!!

    Honestly this is my first time seeing an environmental science UA-camr. I’m glad I found this channel. 3 years ago I was searching for videos regarding environmental sciences but YT results only came up with foreign university promotion material. I ended up going to Australia (I’m from Sri Lanka) to study a 3-year degree and it was worth it! The knowledge and the experiences in studying and interning with environmental groups made me more curious about the world we live in. Now I’m a graduate in environmental sciences and looking to advance in to research and sci com!

Btw, I'm a 2nd year BS Bio, and I'm planning to major in Ecology and Systematics so (for context, UP Baguio has three "tracks" or major to choose from in third year which include Gen. Bio, Microbio, and Ecology & Systematics) ^-^.

    I live in Michigan and I have a bordline obsessive passion for fishing and the outdoors. Being 31 I questioned whether or not I could attempt college again after a brief try in my teens. All your videos helped me a lot informatively on what to possibly expect going into this career and greatly appreciate that. 1 of my main goals is to help protect this regions waterways from what seems like an insurmountable task of the Asian Carp Invasion (bighead, silver, grass). I am currently in the last 2 semesters of getting my Associates in Science from Macomb C.C and transferring to University of Michigan-Flint to get my Bachelor's in Wildlife Biology. It always felt right to pursue this career and to reiterate, A lot of your videos have only influenced me and excited me more than ever to complete what I set out to accomplish. Thank you.

      I hope you find something that suits you and makes you happy. Some colleges offer "tracks" like a medical vs. non-medical track. Non-medical track will cut out quite a lot of the more challenging classes like physics and organic chemistry. Our program also offers leniency with internships, for instance, working in a professor's research lab at your college for a summer could count as an internship. I recommend meeting 1:1 with the advisor or coordinator and exploring your options, if you haven't already. Best of luck to you!

    I am currently studying Tourism and Hospitality Management. When Covid-19 hit, the tourism industry stopped. Even for Tourism, I had to learn Environmental Conservation. Without these destinations, there is no tourism. That's when I got so interested in Environmental preservation and Sustainability. I am from Myanmar, where a democratically elected government is detained by the brutal military and inevitable civil war is about to happen. So my school stopped since we boycotted military terrorists. But on the bright side, I got another chance to change my major from Tourism to Environmental Science that a country like Myanmar needs. I am applying for a scholarship now. Hope I can learn the subject I wanted to learn and contribute back to my motherland when this long nightmare finishes. Thanks for all the facts and experiences you shared. I like to grow plants and flowers.

I'd like to be a park naturalist or park ranger or maybe even both since, park rangers are naturalists, too. Does my choice of studies seem like a good choice? I know there's many other earth sciences I could study like conservation law, environmental management, ecology, biology, etc! Do you know if the one I chose to study would be right for what I want to do?

    Environmental science definitely opposes modern technological , mechanical , industrial , and commercial advancements , as all of these advancements have made our environment becoming like hell like places . Clearing forest to avoid enterference on sattellite communication , with additional human triggered radaitions , industrialization , mining , that degrading the deposited rocks making altitudinal heights of the mountains to lower by erosions , and the lower altitude is the hotter that lacks pressures to liquify evaporated water molecules causing a hastening effect on weathering . Plants are symbiotic twins to animals on give and take relation , but animal kingdom turned out to be pokemon eating everything along the way leaving denuded areas . Chlorophyll and roots are important to create a mountains with the help of wildlife , the deminishing number of perrennial trees which have great difference on osmotic role compared to agricultural plants affected so much on our ecological system to become more hotter . If times comes that therell be no more forest , total pressure and temperature will be concentrated to the planet's core causing phenominal activities that surely devastate our human home
