Just got a press release from the American Geological Institute (NB, this is definitely **not** the AGU) in my email. You can see it at
http://www.agiweb.org/news/EmploymentSurvey06 Apparently the petroleum industry is having difficulty recruiting scientists. Interesting. What caught my attention was the idea that students are being steered toward the "environmental industry". An immediate question this item raises in my mind is "what is the environmental industry" and indeed, "how could I apply for a job with them were I so inclined"? Meanwhile, the AGI's statement on climate change, issued in 1999 and not updated since, is a veritable marvel of non-commitment to any substantive position. http://www.agiweb.org/gapac/climate_statement.html mt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Global Change ("globalchange") newsgroup.
