Answer 1

Get ready to report me because I may be going to bruise your delicate ego.

An environmentalist does not get paid. Being an environmentalist is a state of mind. You may have environmentalism confused with ecology. An ecologist is someone who studies the relationship between organisms and their environment. There is also environmental science, which deals with ecology whom the strictly human point of view. Either of these fields requires a college degree, at the very least. If you are interested in either, I hope that you will realize that, in the time it took for you to write your note (shouted too, tsk, tsk), you could have used the spell-checker and presented a much better appearance to the world.

Answer 2

An environmentalist can have many roles.  Often he or she will work in the field, collecting data about their chosen topic.  Other environmentalists can be activists, professors, or researchers working on new processes to help the environment.  Their salaries are quite variable, depending on their position and their employer.

Answer 3

you are brilliant .person why must you have a question like this I read your info it is super

Answer 4

Oikos is right about the name "environmentalist", at least in the US.  I am an Environmental Specialist by profession.  I insure environmental compliance for my employer.  I have a Master of Science degree in Environmental Engineering.  I work with other types of Environmental Specialist who help me do my job.  As I said I'm an engineer, but I work with chemists, biologists, anthropologists and other types of ...ologists to perform studies and prepare documents.  I work for the government so I don't make as much as I could in the private sector, about $100k/year (USD).

The lowest end of environmental employment are those people that collect samples and elementary data in the field that have some formal education (sub professional positions).  The next level up is someone with a degree in applied science like chemistry, aquatic biology, wildlife biology, botany or engineering.

Each of these sciences has different roles in the process of protecting the environment using the perspective of their employer.  Some people go through the process trying show there are no negative impacts, while others do the opposite to show there are negative impacts.  I've worked both sides.

Pick a science, where possible steer your education towards environmental issues, get at least a BS (an MS will take you farther) then find an employer that does what you think you want to do.
