“Green- Collar Jobs” by Lisa Dolce
Monday, February 9, 2009 | 10:52 amStill looking for ways to use your talents in this new economy? Do you want a job that pays the bills AND changes the world?
How about a “green” job? We’ve been hearing about this “green initiative” for a long time now and many of you (and me) have been asking but where are the jobs? when are they coming? and what are they called?
Well here are a few answers to those questions:
According to Herman Trend Alert (www.hermangroup.com/alert) this eco- conscious sector is growing rapidly. A few of the Top 10 Green jobs are Land Use Planner, Ecotour Operator, Green Building Managers, Solar Panel Installers and Green Venture Capitalists. Check out GreenCollarHiring.com for the complete list.
Here are some organizations that are also hiring:
-Environmental Defense Fund is looking for web talent
-National Wildlife Federation is looking for folks with communications experience
-The Environmental Defense Fund
So how might you use your talents to better the world ecologically? Is a”green” job for you?

Lisa,
Going “green” is so on topic right now! Having resources listed are helpful to know where to turn for this type of job search (and forward on to others). Some younger audiences will benefit from the career guidance too. Thanks!
