'But the greatest increase in demand by far will be for folks who know how to clean up spaceship earth. That's because an increasingly health-conscious public is eager to find environmental engineers who can prevent problems rather than simply control those that already exist. Says David Levy, chairman of the Jerome Levy Forecasting Center, a think tank in Mount Kisco, N.Y.: "We expect the U.S. to start exporting environmental expertise to Europe and Asia, including to emerging markets like India." Welcome to the new world, same as the old world: New markets make new opportunities.'
