[edit] Template Purpose and Format

The initial purpose of this template is to bring together all of the subtopics of Environmental Technology.

The purpose of this template is to direct persons to subject matter which falls into the heading of Environmental Technology. This does not claim that the article Environmental Technology is the infallable source, as it may need work itself.

The format of the entries should be general topics within Environmental Technology. However, should the subject matter become too long, appropriate tree links should be formed. If you do not know how to do this, then hands off. If you do, then please feel free to expand."

The current links in this template are there intentionally, as of this posting. Please, discuss before merely wiping links off the template. --Hard Raspy Sci 02:15, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
The template is "environmental technology" which is well needed. The links which have suddenly grown substantially includes references to "environmental science". The template is becoming unwieldy since the large expansion took place and needs reworking ans separating into the two above groups.--Alex 09:09, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
I know, "environmental technology" needs to be a CORE subset of Environmental Science. But the reason, the links were there originally before the large expansion took place, see the following paragraph. Anyway, someone erased them, and the template got wildly off topic. Typically, what I see are people removing links that are not "their" environmental technology.
Environmental technology is the practice or application of environmental science, which includes the non-scientific/tech fields like Conservation ethic, Environmental law (which is erased!),...and others, as well as those scientific/tech topics like Conservation biology, Environmental preservation.
The unfortunate result of too many chefs, is that everyone has their own, narrow, view of what environmental technology is. If you need an example, talk to HazMat personnel, or OSHA. Hard Raspy Sci 00:33, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
