Question
what sort of education would i have to get to learn how to clean water, air, hazardous waste/disposal?
Hi Jwilson: Thanks for your question.
You would probably need an undergraduate degree in chemistry/biology or environmental science. Depending on what kind of responsibility you would like to take on, more advanced degrees might be necessary. Experience is also required.
