OUR CONSERVATION IN SW FLORIDA

As we recognize the growing importance of the environment in both the local and global communities, youth are expressing increasing interest in learning about and working with natural resources. There are many good career opportunities with a variety of employers working in and with other natural resources. To solve environmental problems and manage resources, people need to have skills in many areas--science, policy, economics, communication, history, and design. Landscape architects, wildfire researchers, recreation specialists, wildlife biologists, wood scientists, hydrogeologists, interpreters, forest technicians, forest managers, firefighters, pilots, plant scientists, archaeologists, entomologists, geneticists, soil scientists, wastewater engineers, fishery biologists, computer programmers, air quality chemists, transportation engineers, accountants, statisticians, cartographers, policy analysts, and law enforcement agents all have careers that could provide them a chance to work with natural resources in some capacity. *
