President Obama's stimulus package aims to double the USA's supply of renewable energy in three years. To do so, some 3.5 million jobs are to be created over the next two years, many of these, eco jobs. This means many thousands need to be trained in environmental fields. Green jobs training programs are receiving $500 million from the stimulus.

Choose well! How to make sense of the green career avalanche?

What are "green jobs"?

Green collar work can be defined as:

Being the employment and entrepreneurial opportunities involved in the green economy, including the four industry sectors of green products, renewable energy, green services and environmental conservation. Green jobs policies, strategies andinvestments need to lead to high quality jobs with good wages and benefits,meeting current wage and labor laws. (adapted from Green Jobs Task Force’s Definition of Green Jobs, Minnesota, 20th January, 2009.

Generally, eco workers implement environmentally conscious design, policy, and technology to improve sustainable ways of living. As regulations in this area of the economy develop there is a rising call for trained professionals in renewable energy, conservation and research.

A few examples only of such jobs are:

  • environmental consultants
  • environmental or biological systems engineers
  • green building architects
  • renewable energy engineers
  • green vehicle manufacturers
  • organic growers
  • electricians in renewable energy
  • eco lawyers
  • plumbers installing renewable energy
  • educational personnel in environmental studies
  • building weatherization workers
  • green mechanics
  • alternative health professionals
  • drinking water technicians

Where are these green jobs? Do I have to travel?

There will be local environmental jobs as there will be in far-off places. The USA, UK, Europe, Australia, India, China, Russia, you name it. The pressures are the same everywhere. Growing energy demand, climate change pressures and tanking economies being primed with Billions of government dollars.

Choose your green career. Choose your location. Qualified greenies never looked at a brighter career future than now.
