Renewable Energy Green-collar Workers
A green-collar worker is a worker who is
employed in the environmental sectors of the economy, or in the
agricultural sector. Environmental
green-collar workers satisfy the demand for
green development. Generally, they
implement environmentally conscious design, policy, and technology to
improve
conservation and
sustainability. Formal environmental
regulations as well as informal social expectations are pushing many firms
to seek professionals with expertise with environmental,
energy efficiency, and clean
renewable energy issues. They often seek to
make their output more sustainable, and thus more favorable to public
opinion, governmental regulation, and the Earth's
ecology.
Green collar workers include professionals such
as
conservation movement workers,
environmental consultants, environmental or biological systems engineers,
green building
architects, holistic
passive solar building designers,
solar energy and
wind energy engineers,
nuclear engineers,[1]
green vehicle engineers, "green business"
owners,
[2]
green vehicle, organic farmers,
environmental lawyers, ecology educators, and
ecotechnology workers. Green collar workers
also include vocational or trade-level workers:
electricians who install
solar panels,
plumbers who install solar water heaters,
construction workers who build energy-efficient
green buildings and
wind power farms, construction workers who
weatherize buildings to make them more energy efficient, or other workers
involved in clean,
renewable,
sustainable
future energy development. There is a
growing movement to incorporate social responsibility within the green
industries. A sustainable green economy simultaneously values the importance
of natural resources and inclusive, equitable, and healthy opportunities for
all communities. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
