Abundant Environmental Fields
The multi-faceted job opportunities in environmental services
A
career in environmental services tends to evoke clichéd images of eco-warriors protesting the cutting of timber or oil extraction, but scratch the surface and it becomes clear that the field is far from that stereotype. “[Environmental science] means a lot of different things to a lot of different people,” explains Adrian Gall, president at ABR, Inc., an environmental consulting firm with offices in Anchorage and Fairbanks. “It can mean permit compliance and writing permit acquisition, or it can be more grounded in the environmental and physical sciences, where you want to go out and answer very applied questions.”
