In the era of dust and rust, we seek refuge for the betterment and sustainability. With the chunk of magic from the beginning till the betterment and development, life took a roller coaster of the events. Some were hard and others were smooth, but each one of them witnessed the success in the life. In the era of technology, we are facing the drastic changes in climatic actions that are looking forward to human beings for reversible actions that can help the Earth live unique and evergreen.
According to NOAA's 2020 Annual Climate Report the combined land and ocean temperature has increased at an average rate of 0.13 degrees Fahrenheit ( 0.08 degrees Celsius) per decade since 1880; however, the average rate of increase since 1981 (0.18°C / 0.32°F) has been more than twice that rate. While The global land/sea warming ratio varies in the range 1.36–1.84, independent of global mean temperature change. As per the recent survey, 85 percent of the world population lives in areas affected by climate change, new study shows - The Washington Post. All these facts emphasize on the career development and counselling of the youth that constitutes of the 1.5 billion globally. In 2019, there are about 1.2 billion youth aged 15 to 24 years in the world, or 16 per cent of the global population. Around 2065, the world's youth population is projected to reach its peak, at just under 1.4 billion persons (13%). This proves the ultimate key to sustainable actions must be driven by the Youth. To attain the sustainability, we must hold the key towards climatic actions career development, that is the need of hour. Here are some careers that can help you save this earth from the expanding deforestation, arrogant global warming, rapidly accelerating carbon emission rationale and increasing natural disasters.
Environmental engineers role is pivotal in saving the globe, as per the accelerating urbanization and their urge for development of innovative buildings, new technological vehicles and much more. According to the BLS: “Environmental engineers use the principles of engineering, soil science, biology and chemistry to develop solutions to environmental problems. They are involved in efforts to improve recycling, waste disposal, public health and water and air pollution control.” Thus, all these careers merged with an environmental engineer would help the humanity to rise with sustainability in organic actions. In Pakistan, environmental engineers fall in following jobs sectors:
Environmental scientists proves to be the key to drive the global actions and human dreams by providing ways to increase organic elements usage through the safe amalgamation of inorganic constituents. further, by increasing the safe ways for public safety in the chemical food chains reactions. According to the BLS: “Environmental scientists and specialists use their knowledge of the natural sciences to protect the environment and human health. They may clean up polluted areas, advise policymakers or work with industry to reduce waste". In Pakistan, environmental scientists and researchers can contribute by joining following sectors:
Geoscientists and meteorologists contribute by designing strategies for the protection and prediction of natural disasters, changes taking place due to human impacts in Earth core and measures required for establishing strength of Earth geology. According to the BLS: “Geoscientists study the physical aspects of the Earth, such as its composition, structure and processes, to learn about its past, present and future.” In Pakistan, following niches require geoscientists:
In Pakistan, during recent years, the emphasis on Green Pakistan created mass awareness to opt this career and design strategies for phenomenon - Reforestation and Afforestation . According to the BLS: “Conservation scientists and foresters manage the overall land quality of forests, parks, rangelands and other natural resources.” Following domains help forests scientists to contribute in the well-being of forestry:
Agriculture and Food scientists: As Pakistan is an agricultural country, so environmental actions revolve around the Pakistan very deeply. In Pakistan, almost 88% of the community is directly and indirectly linked to agriculture, livestock and food production. That is the reason, the one having grip in research on agriculture and food is having the importance in public health engagement and survival. The scope of agriculture and food sector implies almost every sector of Pakistan directly and indirectly.
All these vast domains when mingle with each other and starts cooperation on a mass level, can bring sustainability through actions. In the era of digital well-being, with the magic of social media and tip of fingers, we can disseminate this message on a mass level in a very short time. Through our collaborations, the careers and development counsels can help students opt these fields, bring creativity in the campaigns, innovation in ideas and find the threshold of bringing humans in revival of the ecosystem either through GREEN GLOBE campaigns or with SUSTAINABLE GLOBE ideas! |

Hello Momina, this is your mentor Joon.
There are several ways which one could contribute to environmental problems on the same time pursuing their careers. Those careers which does not relatively seem close to environment has some kind of links to it. For instance, there is not much 'environmental' image when you think about electric engineer. However, by contributing on research on sustainable energy source, it is connected to environment in positive way. There are million links so people should not hesitate, but look for connectivity between their major and environment.
Well read your article, and let's keep up!
Best,
Joon
