      That becuase they managed to understand that there is a balance between human activity and the environment they live in that they must keep.
      The people who reduced them to nothing have spent centuries developing the scientific field to reach the same conclusion and then not listen only to have placed the entire planet in jeopardy. Really funny how things work.

    I just watched all three or four of your career videos and they're very helpful in giving me general ideas in careers and majors concerning Environmental Science. I am going to be a senior next school year (CO' 2021) and we all know that it's a time to start narrowing what majors I want to pursue in college and as well as starting to think about possible jobs in the near future. I'm creating a lists of careers and majors that you are explaining on your videos so that I could go back and decide. I'm most interested in Restoration Biologist and Sustainability Specialist.
    You are awesome and thank you for making these videos!

    Another great and helpful video 😃 I am curious how different degrees play in the field. There are so many different degree programs that are so specialized, does it matter what degree you get if you are trying to work in the industry? How does an ecology degree differ from a wildlife conservation degree when it actually comes down to getting a job? Most of the job postings I see will say “bachelors in life science or related field...” is it really just a personal preference what you decide to get?

Thought maybe I could get a masters in environmental science a couple years after I get my bachelors but idk how the world would be so it just scares me:/

    • @kristina_lynn

    I have wanted to be a National Park Ranger in the US for the past 3 years, but as I'm looking at schools for my Bachelor's Degree I kept having this nagging feeling of "this isn't enough." Of course I would love and be honored by the opportunity to become part of the NPS. But I realize I want to do more than that. I have an insane amount of passion for the environment and I feel it would be wasted there. So now I'm studying Environmental Science with politics in mind. What work can I do that will positively affect people's perception of nature? What connections and policies could I help write that would change the course of our future? How best can I serve the world and myself? These are the questions...

    all these environmentally consious jobs add to global warming due to being part of the cancer economy. say you 'earnt' 50k a year 'saving the planet'. firstly where does the energy come from to do the job. all the travelling about and materials. you will require the heated office, and the probability you will be in a university. its all from fossil fuels. and where is all that money you 'earn' going. its going on the car, holidays, house, kids, clothes, entertainment, and a plethora of other industrial products. why do you think a job is hard to aquire. because its a slice of the fossil fuelled cake, and a means to fulfil the biological mandates of feeding, growth and reproduction. any job (as opposed to work) is just another product. a product of the oil age.

      I agree with some what you said. In fact environmental issues is all about economic that is why it is so hard for most countries to save environment. Because every country want to improve its economy in order to provide good quality of life to its citizens. and this will happen by allowing many companies to do their what they wants to do as long as they pay to the government. So there will be two way to save planet , either people accept to change their life stile, or for governments has to focus their support to environmentalists and biologists in order to find alternatives solutions for economic sectors
