Full Question:
What is the environmental impact that technological changes have had on the manufacture of furniture. eg. manufactured board verses the use of sold timber?

One can be the use of cleaner Technologies. For example, powder coating MDF kitchen cabinets, instead of using spray paint over solid wood panels. The MDF boards are made of pine, a species that grows very fast and it’s harvesting doesn’t damage the tropical forest, and powder coating is environment friendly.

I want to major in environmental engineering but the school i want to go to only has Environmental engineering science listed as a major close to what i want. What is the difference?

Engineering is an occupation or profession, whereas engineering science is the structured body of knowledge upon which that profession is built. So for practical and especially for educational considerations, they are essentially at least very close, if not practically the same.

How did Environmental factors affect social and cultural change in the various civilizations of the Indian Ocean basin?..You would really be helping me out.

I imagine isolation from China (Himalayans) had a part to play. And the monsoon season certainly effects their lives. I believe some of the rivers are holy as well as some mountains. Perhaps fertile soil in some parts do to conditions. Rivers can also be used for transportation, and that has effects on a civilization.

don t hesitate to rate it!

I wish to go to Yale University. What jobs are available if I take the Environmental studies at Yale? What exactly is environmental studies? What do you do there?

Environmental studies …is a BA degree that covers mostly environmental policy classes.

Classes that deal with the protection of the environmental …..from the government point of view

Usually people obtain this degree and go onto Law school (environmental law)….or MBA

They usually work for the EPA or for some non profit org.

The EPA mainly deals with policy work of the environment……

How can Environmental science help solve crime cases and what areas of forensics does it relate to?

Forensic scientists do NOT test the DNA of plants! That’s just something that CSI made up. You could determine that it was the same species of plant (by morphology, etc.) but that is as far as you would go with that.

I would say toxicology most. There is an entire area of forensic environmental toxicology in which people study the toxins that are put into the environment in industry.

Soil comparisons too. This is a huge part of trace chemistry.

I’m sure that there are more areas that it relates, but it’s the only things I can think of off the top of my head.

What is Environmental Law? Insights from Ecology and Economics

Instructor Holly Doremus. This introductory course is designed to explore fundamental legal and policy issues in environmental law. Through examination of environmental common law and key federal environmental statutes, including the National Environmental Policy Act, Clean Air Act, and Clean Water Act, it exposes students to the major challenges to Environmental law and the principal approaches to meeting those challenges, including litigation, command and control regulation, technology forcing, market incentives, and information disclosure requirements. With the addition of cross-cutting topics such as risk assessment and environmental federalism, it also gives students a grounding in how choices about regulatory standards and levels of regulatory authority are made.

This also includes its manufacture and disposal. I also have to "discuss the economic and Environmental costs and benefits of washing the dishes by hand."
This is a free response question for AP Environmental Science. I already did calculations to find that washing dishes by hand actually requires more energy (in BTU’s) than washing dishes using the electric dishwasher.
Here is my thesis statement: Although many people believe the electric dishwasher uses more energy than washing the dishes by hand, it is much more energy efficient to wash dishes using an electric dishwasher.

You’re correct, an energy efficient dishwasher generally uses less water and less energy than a typical hand-washer, although if you’re obsessive about washing dishes with a minimum of energy it is possible to beat the dishwasher in water and energy use. Of course, you’ll be using a lot of your own time to do so.

Modern dishwashers are designed with several features that make them particularly efficient, including smart sensors to figure out when there are no longer large food particles in the water (‘Smart Wash’), heater in the dishwasher to heat the water to a higher temperature, which requires less soap and washes more effectively, allowing you to lower the temperature in your hot water heater to a more efficient and safer temperature; and ability to wash dishes that start off extremely dirty, so you don’t have to prerinse anything but the filthiest dishes.

A study done in the EU (described in the article linked below) found that most people used more hot water and/or soap than a typical dishwasher, when given a standard set of dishes to wash.

I want to go to grad school with a environmental science masters program, as I am about to get a B.S in environmental systems focusing on ecology behavior and evolution. But I am now stumped into what I want to do with it. I dont want to be aperson who will just gather field data and write papers on it. Anybody know what I would do? I want to perform outdoor field work, but not have to do so much of the writing part.

Find Work in Your Field
Many graduates are already employed by Environmental firms and government agencies in the region. Practitioners in the field and those looking for career changes gain opportunities with the Maryland Department of the Environment, Department of Natural Resources and local and national private environmental companies.

I’m planning on becoming an environmental engineer but many of the environmental engineering jobs I’ve been hearing about are mostly consisted of paperwork. I know there are jobs out there that aren’t all paper work but would there be a good chance that if I become an Environmental engineer I’ll be stuck with job where I’m in an office doing paper work almost all the time?

The source links I posted below should help you.
