Green labor trends continue to expand
As jobs in the fossil fuel industry continue their downward spiral, jobs in renewable energy and other environmentally sustainable sectors are on the rise. This is great news, as it shows a positive trend in not only the green job market itself, but the entire "green" industry.Over at the Worldwatch Institute, they've compiled a wonderful 3-part series on the greening of labor. Part One covers a wind energy development center in Sweetwater, Texas that has undergone an economic boom in the past four years. Part Two showcases the end of the coal mining industry in Germany, and how residents are fighting the unemployment with a new resurgence of green jobs in the area. Finally, Part Three gives us a look at the emerging solar industry in Kenya and how this growth could trickle down to the country's youth. Check out this complete series for some extremely helpful information on the green job trends and how to possibly get one yourself, if you're in the market.
