Presenter Jen Boudrie gave job seekers another avenue to
explore while searching for jobs--a career in a green industry. Opening with
"The planet needs environmental sustainability and people need jobs,"
Jen provided a comprehensive overview of green jobs and how and where to
find them.
Because of climate change, population growth, economic
development and natural resource depletion, there are many opportunities for
green jobs across industries. According to Jen, any job can be green--or
greener. Government, businesses and nonprofits all offer opportunities for
green careers. The fields of energy, water, materials/waste, purchasing,
transportation and management are all looking for ways to be
"greener."
