I want to do field work like research and survey an environment for example, a coral reef and help the environment. I want to pursue a degree in Geography or something to do this but i am unsure of the market for this when i am done and if i can get a great income as well and do the outdoor work that i want. Can you plz help me find a way to do this and give me an opinion as to where and what i should do????............... 0% 0 Votes

i am in this field right now. I can suggest a number of firms by where you live. You best option is being an environmental consultant, where you need a geology/environmental science degree. It is, as other jobs where you first few years you will be in the 30,000%26#039;s then you you will be making serious money once you get job experience. if you google, or oops* yahoo environmental consultants than you get websites of people who do this work. There are some companies that specialize in wetlands, some that do former industrial sites, some that just do gas stations. The truth is that you can make a good income, by doing this. It took me a few years after I graduated to find it out! The enviromental market is just fine, even in michigan (where everything else is bad). You could also look online at the usgs website. You should go wherever you want live. The world is yours :) You might also want to check out urban planning jobs. A lot of environmental companies do urban planning as well. 0% 0 Votes
