Environmental jobs?????

[angymnast247]

Hi again, i am a senior in college and am at the crutial point of trying to figure out what i should major in. i love the earth and i want a job that will help in the quest to protect and preserve. i also want a job that involves being outside alot and i dont mind physical labour.

in our society i acctually do see alot of environmentally friendly buisnesses and other things going good for the environment. but i am still unsure of what i want to do.

i am wondering if anyone here has jobs like this or know of any. i am leaning tward majoring in conservation biology and possably have a minor on the side just so i have a backround in something elce. and from there look for jobs. but i dont really know what kind of jobs there are. i know there are park rangers and such but i think i want to do more than that, and acctually help others to love the earth too.

if anyone has any info on jobs or majors please give me some info. thanks a bunch. :p
peace and love

When I was 18 I was going to get involved in the state park here, training with the usda and then go to college for something after I figured which field I was into, well I decided to party instead of go and volunteer to get my feet wet and I never returned, it still makes me mad and it was 8 almost 9 years ago!!

I will got to school for it someday, but now I have to wait till my son grows up a bit, but it was my mistake and I learned from it cause now I work behind a desk and that was the last place I ever wanted to be!

so go for your it!!!
