The Reasons Why I Chosen To Consider Majoring In Geology

I know in a couple of my past blogs and the most recent one I’m majoring in Geology. I guess I became passionate for geology when I was back in elementary or Jr. High School. I don’t completely remember when it was but, every time we learned about rocks, minerals, and geology in general I always founded very appealing and interesting to me. It appealed to me so much that I was eager to learn even more about earth science in general. There are a couple good reasons why I loved Earth Science. For one reason I love learning and using new technology. In the all of the text books I remember seeing some GPS units, seeing all of the field equipment which included off road four wheel drive vehicles, and briefly hearing about GIS. The second reason is I love not just being indoors using different technology but I love being outdoors. Some of my outdoors activities that I love is walking through the woods, gardening, collecting rocks, and believe it or not mowing grass. Now since I’m a geology and petroleum geology major as well I’m extremely thrilled. Just for a side note I’m not against renewable energy or saving the environment. These two things are very important and we need to be doing them. One of the main reasons why I fell in love with geology is because, I want to make a difference in our world. Just like I said in my second blog all of the Earth Sciences are involved with solving some of the toughest challenges that we have today. One of the main things that I feel challenged by is that the energy demand is raising pretty rapidly in upcoming countries. While the renewable energy resources are on the rise but they have a very long way to go. It is a big challenge to help meet the energy demand and protect the environment at the same time. That’s one of the main reasons why I chosen geology because of how diverse the field is. I can help find areas suitable for renewable resources also, help the environment, oil and gas, construction, and many more. I love the challenges that geology offers and I want to be working in both the outdoors in the field and indoors. I just want to remind everyone that I have a passion for geology. I also want to remind everyone that I’m not against renewable energy or saving the environment.
