Environmental consulting

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Environmental consulting is often a form of compliance consulting, in which the consultant ensures that the client maintains an appropriate measure of compliance with environmental regulations. There are many types of environmental consultants, but the two main groups are those who enter the field from the industry side, and those who enter the field from the environmentalist side.

Environmental consultants work in a very wide variety of fields. Whether it be providing Construction Services such as Asbestos Hazard Assessments or Lead Hazard Assessments or conducting due dillgence reports for customers to rid them of possible sanctions. Consultancies may generalise across a wide range of disciplines or specialise in certain areas of environmental consultancy such as waste management.

True Environmental Consultants should have a undergraduate degree at the minimum and a master's degree...and if not...that should be compensated for a substantial years in the industry. They basically should have a great depth on knowledge on Environmental Regulations which they can "consult" particular clients in the private industry or public govt. institutions to help them steer clear of possible fines, legal action or misguided transactions.
