Exciting Launch Ahead: ASN's New Content Revolutionizing Environmental Consulting with AI and Innovation
Hey there, fellow problem solvers and innovators! If you're a US-based consultant tackling environmental challenges, or just passionate about smart, sustainable solutions, buckle up. At Applied Science Network (ASN), we're gearing up for a major launch on September 1, 2025. Drawing from over 37 years of hands-on experience in Phase I ESAs, groundwater contamination remediation, invasive species management, and more, we're expanding our platform to deliver twice-monthly content that's practical, actionable, and infused with cutting-edge tech. Check out our hubs at balanceconsultinginc.com, appliedsciencenetwork.com, and our Blogger updates for the full scoop.
The Environmental Minute: Quick Hits on Real-World Wins
Kicking off each episode, our new "Environmental Minute" segment packs punchy insights into pressing issues. Think rapid rundowns on topics like river and stream management via Emergency Watershed Protection (EWP) and conservation easements, or why bats, mosquitoes, and toads highlight the pitfalls of aerial pest control (spoiler: it's often a money pit that doesn't deliver). We'll profile Louisiana's invasive species battles—covering plants, animals, and microbes—and explore urban renewal through land reuse, vapor intrusion in commercial real estate, and even why toilet paper vanishes during storms or health crises. These bites are designed for busy consultants like you, offering keywords like "environmental site assessments," "hazardous waste management," and "coastal projects" to optimize your searches and strategies.
AI and Problem Solvers: Interviews That Empower Your Workflow
Diving deeper, our AI-focused segment spotlights renowned and under-the-radar innovators who are reshaping fields like environmental monitoring with AI and robotics. We'll interview trailblazers from our wish list, including Samantha Baxter at Fondriest for tech in water quality, George Melancon from Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries on conservation easements, and Zac Davis at Dronetech on GIS and drone projects. Expect chats with not-so-famous gems like Brent Bray (PG) on forensics and Dr. Kreiger from New Fields on site remediation.
But it's not just talk—we'll show you how to harness AI tools for better workflows. Learn to integrate AI for predictive modeling in groundwater development, automating Phase II investigations, or optimizing team building via "cherry picking" strategies. We'll cover robotics for harsh-environment monitoring (think drones over FUDs sites like Hammond Bombing Range) and AI-driven insights for psychology in client expectations and ego-free consulting. As a solo technical consultant? Get advice on excelling in your niche, from permitting (air, water, RCRA) to philanthropic projects like NSRW conservation programs.
What's Coming: AI, Robotics, and Tools on the Rise
Starting September 1, anticipate episodes on AI and robotics transforming environmental monitoring—e.g., mobile labs for legionella on marine vessels or constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment. We'll highlight tools gaining traction, like those for oil reclamation, tank cleaning, and munitions management, alongside interviews with voices like Dr. Willie Soon on climate forensics or seasoned lawyers and experts on hidden liability audits.
This isn't fluff; it's for US-based problem solvers seeking budget-friendly, innovative edges in industrial property cleanup, municipal water supply, or agriculture planning. Join us twice a month to level up your game—what you've learned from 37 years of ESAs could be your next breakthrough.
