My Future Job
Environmental engineering is the application of scientific and engineering principles to improve
and maintain the environment to: protect human health, protect nature's beneficial ecosystems,
and improve environmental-related enhancement of the quality of human life.
What is Environmental Engineering?
• Environmental engineering is the branch of engineering that is concerned with protecting people from the
effects of adverse environmental effects, such as pollution, as well as improving environmental quality.
Environmental engineers work to improve recycling, waste disposal, public health, and water and air pollution
control, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
• The practice of environmental engineering dates back to the dawn of civilization. Ever since groups of people
began living in semi-permanent settlements, they have had to deal with the challenges of providing clean water
and disposing of solid waste and sewage. With the growth of cities and the advent of large-scale farming and
manufacturing, people have also had to worry about air quality and soil contamination.
• The first environmental engineer is said to have been Joseph Bazalgette. According to an article in the
Postgraduate Medical Journal, Bazalgette oversaw the construction of the first large-scale municipal sanitary
sewer system in London in the mid-19th century. This was prompted by a series of cholera epidemics, as well as a
persistent unbearable stench, that were attributed to the discharge of raw sewage into the Thames River, which
was also the main source of drinking water for the city. This "great stink," which was so noxious that it caused
Parliament to evacuate Westminster, gave then-Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli grounds to ask for 3.5 million
pounds to improve the city's sewage disposal system.
