How I want to use my degree

I imagine that human reasoning is just as complicated as Earth systems models. There's the influence of time and experience, and there's biochemistry. I'm betting that each of these factors is both additive as well as multiplicative depending on the circumstances. I'm not saying this to be difficult but to explain my difficulty. Honestly, when asked how I want to use my degree, I cannot say, "This is the very specific job that I want in this very specific career path with these very specific tasks and responsibilities." I have been alive long enough to know that I am rearranging my choices frequently, as needed. Usually, that is for the better. 

So when I am asked how I want to use my degree... I want to represent science with integrity. I want to contribute to the use of the best available scientific knowledge to better manage the health of the planet and humans. I'd love to contribute to scientific knowledge, but I'd be happy to be able to use the knowledge and make it understandable to others. 

Explaining why seems just as complicated, but for me, it just seems like a good way to take care of people. It's only after studying environmental science for a while that I have a greater appreciation for the dramatic changes that humans are causing the Earth. Before this understanding, I had a different understanding that we were making ourselves sick, and I wanted to understand how we were doing that and how I could help.
