Hi! I am interested in working with the environment but I'm unsure if I want to go to a science field. I'm scared that I might not be able to work in environmental career without a passion for science. Are there career options that don't involve a heavy involvement in science?
Great news!
You absolutely do not need to love science to work in a career that supports a healthy planet! Yes, we need biologists, chemists, and geoscientists but equally important are communication professionals, IT specialists, educators, and others in this field. The most important quality to have when going into a green job isn't a love for science but a passion for creating a healthy planet.
