Reading the posters
 
The posters contains an image of a typical workplace, to show students how careers in sustainability and the environment can be indoor, outdoor or a combination of both.
 
The posters includes a career goal for a worker in that field, with many highlighting the work of famous scientists, researchers and writers across the fields of conservation, marine and earth sciences and biology. This helps students find the link between their own career aspirations and the work of others, and provides a real world example of science as a human endeavor.
 
The posters include a typical 'day in the life' of a person working in that job, so students can see what they might do themselves in that career.
 
The posters show a range of male and female workers from a diverse range of backgrounds in many different settings, to encourage students to understand that careers in sustainability and the environment are accessible and available to everyone.
