Job History Question

It has been said that you should only list your job history for the last ten years especially on applications. My problem is that the career field I am trying to get back into has nothing to do with the career field I am in now. I have been in the warehouse industry which is not working for me for 12 years. My real passion is in the environmental protection field. I have about 7 years experience but was in the field over 12 years ago. How does someone in my case create a 1 page resume listing your relevant experience in the past ten years. There is no way to do this. What kind of resume would you need. I have yet to figure it out. Would a skills resume be best? How would you fill out an application? Someone please help me.

It doesn't matter if your desired career has nothing to do with former work history. Employers mainly want to see job stability because being stable on a job let's them know that you have great work ethics/ company loyalty ( possibly).
