My three kids are in college or recently graduated. I swear at least 1/3 of their friends are going into “environmental law” which is nothing but obstruction of any progress. It is dismaying that I know only one or two aspiring engineers among their friends, but maybe tens of kids moving into “environmental” work. This bodes even worse for our future.
For the last twenty years, EVERY college graduate says they want to go into "environmental law" because they know people hate lawyers and they want to sound cool.
There aren't really any environmental law jobs. Trust me, ten years from now, all of your kid's friends will be lawyers for Phillip Morris, WalMart, Exxon/Mobil, and Halliburton.
It's just like every 17 year old girl plans to be a Veterinarian.
