Hey everyone! I am currently trying to find a lab that would accept and process sediment samples testing for carbon, nitrogen, organic content, denitrification and bulk density. Would anyone have any leads I could reach out to? It would be for pre and post monitoring for Living Shoreline Program. TIA

Hi, I live in a flood zone in New Jersey, I've been affected by it twice in the past two years, when I went to my local city council to discuss this in protest of the park they were building in the flood zone instead of fixing the flooding issue, they told me that despite multiple meeting with the federal government the meetings would end the same, it's would simply be too much money, well I think that's bullshit. I want to create a website to raise awareness of how bad it is on a county level, by doing interviews with local officials, and small activist groups in the county (there's only one that I have found so far) the part I need help researching is climate change, and how it has effected how it has affected the county I live in, Environmental Science is not my strong suit so if anyone can help me please DM me.

I'm currently a sophomore undergrad student taking an Environmental Science major. I used to be architecture, and now want to go back into the more creative side. Although, I do not think I can change my major again now and I do not want to (I will most likely take it as a minor, maybe a . I have always been interested in Art History and have already taken a few courses. I was wondering if there are any good/possible jobs I could research that involve both Art History and Environmental Science (i don't need to be the artist, but maybe something more research based). Like maybe work in museums or conservation science?

Hey all

I'm an undergrad in environmental science and I'm taking an Cartography / Data Visualization class. The final project is to create a map that answers a question to something you are geographically curious about. I am struggling to come up with ideas and wanted to see if you all had any suggestions.

Thanks!

Hello! I’m a student from Canada and will Be graduating this year with a bachelor’s degree in Agriculture and Environmental sciences. I am considering what countries to start a career in with a reasonable quality of life. I have some experience with agricultural-based plant science, parasitology and aquaculture as I have done internships in these fields. I have an interest in nutrition(Agri-food) and ecotoxicology. I speak English, French and a bit of Russian. I can learn other languages if necessary. I’m looking for either a governmental or corporate career for now, but would be willing to get a master’s later on once I figure out what field I want to go into. Thank you!

Hi folks. I graduated with a degree in environmental science back in 2004. I spent a few years working for a firm doing primarily asbestos/lead/mold work - mainly consisting of sampling, reporting, and asbestos abatement project monitoring (which I f’n hated and drove me to eventually leave). I spent 15 years teaching elementary school after leaving the environmental sector all together and have since completely burned out and left that field as well. I guess what I’m wondering is - what is the industry like right now? Is there a place for someone with my history? My concentration was in conservation biology; I didn’t have any intereste in hazardous materials, but that’s where the job was so I took it back in the day. Have things changed to a point where my 20 year old college degree would now be mostly irrelevant?

I’m the founder of ACQUA Solutions, a startup focused on innovative water and wastewater treatment technologies, with a particular emphasis on removing PFAS and using cutting-edge processes like SCWO.

We’re currently in an exciting phase of growth, and I’m looking for a co-founder or intern who’s passionate about solving environmental challenges and is ready to help move this project forward. Whether you have experience in engineering, environmental science, business development, or simply want to be part of a mission-driven startup, I’d love to connect!

This is a great opportunity to gain hands-on experience or take on a leadership role in a fast-moving, impactful company.

Hi there! I have put a lot of thought into what I want to do with my life, and I have decided I want to work with the environment. I hope to work outside, and I have an interest in freshwater ecosystems and specifically freshwater fish. honestly, my GPA is pretty crappy. I test well, but I have long had problems with homework. I live in Massachusetts, where community College is free, and my plan is to go to a community College right out of high school and get an associates degree in environmental science. in the long term, I would use the mass transfer program to transfer my college credits from community College to a larger university, and eventually pursue a bachelor's or masters in a related major. in the short term, I was hoping to spend my twenties using my associates degree to work in the environmental field. is this a doable plan? what kinds of jobs should I be looking for, especially given my interest in freshwater ecosystems? I really appreciate your time.

Delete if not allowed!! I know this is very personal but I’m hoping to get advice from others.

Hey everyone. I’m a semester out from graduating with my masters in Environmental and Geospatial sciences after receiving my bachelor’s in Environmental Biology a few years ago. At this point I’ve dedicated almost a decade of my life to Environmental Science and I absolutely love my field.

Until last week.

After evacuating from and losing my home in Western NC due to the hurricane, I’m realizing that I have actually become a victim of a climate crisis. For the first time ever I feel absolutely stuck and unable to go forward in my studying or in my career field. I feel angry that I know and understand so much about what could’ve prevented so much tragedy, and yet will (probably) never be able to make widespread change to prevent things like this from happening again and again and again. Maybe this is what a crisis of faith feels like, I’m not sure, but I’d really appreciate any words of wisdom right now.

Hello! Im doing a project on insect inspired sustainable products and architecture. Ive found a lot on architecture but only a few items for products such as beeswax wrap (instead of plastic clingwrap) and honeycomb tires. Im not having much luck with finding more things. Not sure what kind of keywords i need to be searching but if you guys know anything i would greatly appreciate it!

Hello All, I’m back in school finishing my 2nd BS (in environmental science) after a career change from education.

I’m looking ahead at graduate school and wondering is there an opinion on a Professional MS in Environmental Science vs a regular MS program in the field?

Is a PMS less regarded and less likely to help my job prospects? Thanks!

Currently in college getting my BA in environmental sciences, I'm lost on what to go for and how to get there plus the job prospects does anybody have and tips or info on how to go about it, currently 24 and a veteran, started college late but trying to get into the field

There is a large radius in the woods where the final clue to a lucrative treasure hunt is hidden. I have some data points like an aerial photo of the area, a live trail cam on the ground updating every 15min, climate, slope, a few animals who appeared on cam and a few other tips.

I need an expert to identify some of the trees and plants, and advise on what type of location this is in.

Please DM me for details, thanks!

When it rains and plants absorb the water/run-off from dirty areas full of pollution, they absorb some of the pollutants. How would you go about studying what these plants release back into the air or what remains inside of them? Would this depend on the type of plant?

Anything else related to this topic would be appreciated! I'm sorry if it's vague, I don't have a full understanding of this concept but I'm currently actively trying to find more information.

Hello everyone, l'm seeking some advice as a second year in undergraduate. As l've been reading more and looking more into my field of study which is Environmental Science, I'm almost nervous for the lack of job opportunities with just a bachelors. I've considered grad school but it's very expensive as someone who is paying their way right now. I don't know much about grad school aid but should I look more into it because conservation or working at national parks was my Initial goal but after reading a lot of posts on here I'm starting to get discouraged. I work in college so it is difficult to gain volunteer hours and seek out other opportunities. Is there anyway to get ahead while I'm still in school or should I reconsider my major entirely? I work at a state park during the summers as a lifeguard while I'm home and I was going to ask about internships and environmental opportunities I could do there. I also really love travel and create content, so ideally I would love to combine both, if feasible? I want to get started into freelance and start helping businesses and shooting more landscape/wildlife photography, the hardest part is simply my lack of time. I've considered just switching to a marketing/business major so I have more time to network and seek opportunities while I'm in a big city at college but also educating people on the environment and sustainability is also a dream of mine. I'm a very versatile person and a go getter so l can kind of adapt to any situation but the last thing I want to do is end up at home after college, not that there is nothing wrong with that, I just worked so hard to get out and start fresh. Any advice is good advice. Is there certain certifications or anything I can do that'll set me apart in my future? Even maybe minoring in marketing or something? Please help this gal (me)!

I am new to GIS but I am a climate and weather enthusiast. I want to start with weather model data (GRIB format) and create weather model visualizations with contours. I am having a hard time finding resources that are tailored to weather and climate around using QGIS and GRIB. Anybody know of some good resources?

I am working on a project needing me to research such topics. It could be negative things like greenwashing or anything positive like new promising research. Things that are either plainly invisible to us (microplastic issue), overlooked (hardships of poorer sections of society) or purposely kept hidden (big oil companies) again, either negative or positive, require more attention than they have now. Basically, things that can have huge impacts but are in the dark from the general public.

Right now, I have - underwater noise pollution and the consequences of genetic modification, but I was hoping to find more topics.

I would be happy if you guys could share something you came across that resonates with it.

Thank you!
