Green job in Florida
by Joyce
I am looking to change my career. I am taking a course to be LEED Green Associate certified. I have been advised to take a course on solar energy. Can anyone give me advise on how I can develop a green career or start my own business? What other courses or training should I take? I live in Florida so that might be a factor as to what type of career or business I can start. --- Hi Joyce Thanks for your question. Difficult to say what you should do. Can we just say that energy efficiency is a very important part of strategies towards conserving energy and reduce greenhouse gasses. It is by no means a sufficient strategy in itself (read Tim Jackson's Prosperity without growth for example)but combined with a public mindset that is more about seeing ourselves as interdependent, small individual every-day actions, and green technologies gives us hope. You may like to contact Denby Energy , whose principal is a LEED-qualified engineer, to appreciate energy auditing as a strong string to your bow. Others here may have further advice?
