Does anyone know of an environmental job I could get w/out any college?


Question:
I really want to do something to help out the world, and the people in it, but I just dont have any money to go to college right now. I want to save money of perhaps get a scholarship out of this, but all of the jobs I have came across need a bachelors degree or something of that nature.If I could even do volunteer work somewhere where I wont need a lot of money and work my way up, I would even love to do that. I realize I'll probably need to just find an ordinary job and save up, but if theres another way I would love to do it. Please Help!!

Answer:
You might look into Americorps. Americorps is basically a domestic Peacecorps. There might be an age limit maybe something like under 25. Americorps doesn't pay much but it may get your foot in the door for other opportunities. They may also pay room and board thereby allowing you to save some money.

Normally I would judge your motives and such and give you my opinions of why I dont think this is right for you but thats not what this forum is for. heres the answer.

go here and apply for basic financial aid from the gov. Even if you dont use it it's usually a prereq to getting aid from anyone else.

http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/

Check with your state, usually they each have a similar program. It's not hard to get your books and tuition paid for. if you can't affoard school then you will qualify. Now the question comes down to can you, and will you commit? Honestly if you can't help yourself by filling out this gov worksheet in a timely manner as the bare minimum in the quest for financial aid, then you wont be able to really help much of anyone at all. it takes willpower and commitment. start here and then see a local financial aid councelor at any local college or university about what to do next. they will point you in the right direction.
get a job picking up paper in the parks or on the streets.
look on craigslist for jobs near you or treehugger.com
if you are australian you could be a coulcil worker.. plus you get to drink as much beer as you want whilst working (not bull just ask an australian they'll know what you mean!!)
