Episode 129: The Explosive Growth in Green Jobs

For the first time in a very long time, nurses are not the most in-demand job. Green jobs, or those that benefit the environment or conserve our planet’s natural resources, have edged out nursing for the most needed and sought-after occupation.  Green careers have been gaining momentum in recent years, and they offer a promising outlook for the job market.  In this episode, Dr. Janel Anderson explains what green careers are, noting that some of them have been around for decades and some are relatively new. From wind turbine technicians to solar panel installers to urban farmers and those designing products for a circular economy, this episode will get you thinking differently about how “greening up” your skill set can have a positive impact on your career.
