<p>Personal Statement 1. Describe the world you come from....</p>
<p>We all need to do our part, but what if we don't know what part we are responsible for? During my time spent studying Environmental Science, my path was defined, and that path has taken me half way around the world to the place where I was born. </p>
<p>After learning the detailed anatomy of our delicate planet, I approached my recent visit back to Iran with an open mind. During my visit I noticed not only the heavy photochemical smog, but also the flourishing economy. I asked my parents,
"Why doesn't the United States have such a thriving Economy like Iran?"
My dad, responded with a simple short response, "The only thing powering this economy is the oil and natural gas beneath us."
Later, after learning about the monopolization of oil in the Middle East, my mind was opened to the frightening reality that once our resources are depleted, we will have no other option but to produce our own energy. When we are faced with no other alternatives, will we be ready? </p>
<p>My interest in Environmental Science was enhanced by a course I took at Cal State University Long Beach that focused on the global perspectives of the environment. During the course, I watched an inspiring documentary on a team of four scientists who were able to travel to Africa and divert clean water from a nearby mountain to a village where clean bacteria-free water was merely a luxury. As a result of their visit, the scientists did not simply bring clean water; they brought the promise of life half way around the world to multiple generations. If four men can travel across the globe and empower generations to come with knowledge of recourses and their locations on earth, then what is there to stop me from making a difference in the lives of those both close to home and abroad? </p>
<p>Recently, I had the opportunity to make a difference of my own. </p>
<p>The Center for Energy and Environmental Research at Cal State University Long Beach nursed me and nine other students in a fellowship to discover cost effective uses of electricity for the high schools we attended. We pinpointed specific areas where high schools could improve efficiency by studying solar cells and digitally placing them effectively on unoccupied roofs. We even gave a formal presentation of our ideas to the school district. Although the proposals didn't go through because of budget cuts, it was the collective effort that progressed environmental stability. After my experience at the university I now have a deeper understanding of what it really takes to extend the life and quality of our planet. My job experience has made me more aware of our energy crises, and has caused me to make alterations in my daily life that were not sustainable towards our planet before. </p>
<p>Whether in Iran, Africa or America, I now know that it only takes one person to make a difference, because it only takes one step to start a journey. My first step on my journey is to attend college and pursue my interests in Environmental Science. It is my goal to influence others and lead a collective effort to a sustainable future for the purpose of preserving a longer and more viable time on this planet, because in the end, what other option will we have? My path begins with my awareness of what I need to accomplish in order to extend my contribution into larger areas, but without knowledge as my foundation, I will only be able to go so far.</p>
<p>Personal Statement 2 Describe a talent or Accomplishment....</p>
<p>The model of the Los Angeles Basin at the Aquarium of the Pacific was made with great precision; its curvy mountains lead directly into miniature estuaries where the overflow of water drains into the blue sea. As an educational volunteer, I was instructing groups of Elementary School Children about rainwater movement in the Basin. The children were captivated by the intricate replica, but once they realized it was just about rainwater, they moved off to the next exhibit as if it were a race. My knowledge felt useless, until I was able to impact the life of a young child with an environmental problem that is vital to our future. </p>
<p>His nametag said "Olly," probably short for Alejandro. What made Olly different was his interest in the exhibit. He asked me a question about the inner workings of aqueducts, which contribute to decreasing ground-water tables. </p>
<p>Olly: "Excuse me, Where does the rain go when it falls into the parks?"</p>
<p>I paused and smiled. "As the water soaks into the ground," I explained, "It filters through the earth and forms into a big underground pool called an Aquifer where we get our drinking water supply." I still remember the disgusted look on Olly's face after I told him that we drink groundwater. I then stressed to Olly how important it is protect our open land because without parks or recreational space for water to replenish in, humans will use the water faster than it recharges. With his understanding of aquifers and the importance of preservation, Olly turned to his fellow classmate and attempted to explain what he had learned.</p>
<p>After my encounter with Olly, I realized that with my knowledge of reoccurring environmental problems, I have a foundation of awareness that is needed for a sustainable future. As I further my education in college, my awareness will expand. I will be able to extend my knowledge to further generations by going beyond the textbook, and by leading and creating activist groups for our current Environmental Movement in the University of California system. Even now, as a senior in high school, I am currently working with the Alliance for Climate Education to receive grants for sustainable project ideas. It is young students like Olly and I who will not only increase groundwater supply, but ultimately improve environmental conditions in this world. After all, it is our youth's active participation and ideas that are responsible for our country's future.</p>
