I am considering environmental engineering because I am interested in finding solutions for environmental problems. I am more interested in research and design of things as well as teaching and advising people of solutions that can help the environment than making sure that companies follow government regulations. I'm not sure if environmental engineering is what I imagine it to be, though, because some engineering blogs say that you do a lot of tedious work and paperwork, and you may feel frustrated because you are not helping much. I want to choose environmental engineering because I heard of people creating things like yucca bags that can replace plastic bags, using bacteria to filter dirty water, hydrogen powered cars, and the EV-1. I also like math and science. I don't know if things like that match environmental engineering specifically or if that is just the feats of inventors and biologists. I know that not only engineers can make things, but I would like to know how to make things. Thank you for answering my question!
