Hi everyone,
First off, very happy to see this community is thriving after leaving Reddit :)
Like the title says, does any such exist? I have 2 environment-related degrees and every work place or volunteer organization I join, is filled with this mindless socialist idiots that have absolutely zero concept of what happens in the outside world and force their own political beliefs on their employees (who are already brainwashed anyways).
Even for the most technical of positions, the employers are still incredibly left-leaning and clueless. I'm actively discouraged by applying when I see what some of these companies' employees are posting on their LinkedIn and what former colleagues preach online.
To clarify, I do have a lot of views that challenge the current environmental field like the climate debate. Another example is how people blamed the AUS wildfires on us neglecting the environment when the country removed the clearing policies that would've prevented the wildfires in the first place to be more "eco-friendly".
Bit of a rant, but am curious if such an employer exists for someone who cares about the environment and doesn't buy the crap the media and schools push.
Thanks for reading and cheers.
Depending on what you do and where you live, oilfield site reclamation might be an interesting one to get into. These companies specialize in finding and cleaning up contamination and returning well sites to their natural state.
I'm in Southern Ontario and have zero issues leaving the region for employment. I've kept an eye on the oil-related jobs and have found that many of them are more temporary positions under 6 months. I am very keen to enter this specific part of the environmental-field. Thanks for the advice and response :)
Ontario is really interesting. There actually was an oil industry there, but during the turn of the century. Lots of old wells that where simply left to nature. Unfortunately the Ministry of Natural Resources is in charge there. So that’s not so good if you’re looking for.... conservative employment. Going west might be a better bet, or looking at other organizations that other posters have mentioned.
There are definitely more opportunities with better pay out west.
I'm OK if you have certain beliefs, but it's how it's pushed on the employees is where my problems lie. I worked at the MNRF for a time and the employers at the branch I was at, really pushed their beliefs on people even though they did some really great work with monitoring and inspections.
It might be worth figuring out who the alberta orphan well association uses and throw them a resume. They’re the busiest right now.
