Green Jobs!

Global warming is killing off species of plants and animals, it hurts our forests. We need the forests because the trees and plants that make them up produce oxygen they absorb some of the carbon dioxide that we breathe out. So Green jobs are good so individuals can produce less Green house gasses while working and doing their daily job, it is a good thing people get paid and they get to help out the environment. Now that it’s becoming easier to find a career that benefits the environment. I would possibly get into, a Green job for a future career, definitely but I am not sure if you will make a lot of money off a Green job. I wish it was like the name, green job equals = you make lots of money ha-ha.

One of the Green Careers I would be interested in myself would probably be a Green architect; they design homes and buildings that produce less pollution and also uses fewer resources, like electricity. The building industry is responsible for more than 40 percent of the Greenhouse gas emissions, says’ an architect from the firm “Gensler”. From what I have read there is a very big demand for people with the skills such as, construction workers, carpenters, air-conditioning technicians, and people who can install solar panels in the Green’ building industry, so go green and get a job that is good for the environment.

Excellent summary. As you know with the current economy, construction and building is at an all time low. Finding a job with a good pay and you enjoying it is a goal to set for your future. 10/10
