An environmental education can give you the knowledge to:

• Identify problems such as climate change, acid mine drainage, contaminated drinking water, invasive species, industrial air pollution, and related health issues;
• Build solutions that are effective at controlling pollution, promote recovery and rehabilitation, and that meet the needs of different peoples, species, and ecosystems;
• Prevent recurrences through understanding the causes, setting public policy, and passing environmentally-friendly laws.

The UWindsor programs in earth and environmental sciences, environmental engineering and environmental studies present an opportunity to explore the possibilities during Careers in the Environment: Transform your world, an open forum with guests from government, private industry and academic institutions, starting at 5 p.m. Tuesday, November 20, in the Ed Lumley Centre for Engineering Innovation.
