UN forecasts boom in 'green jobs'

A recent report of UN says that by 2030, 12 million people could be working in 'green jobs'. It will happen if the industry adopts wind, solar and geothermal power instead of the traditional oil approach.

The report 'Green jobs: Towards Decent Work in a Sustainable, Low-Carbon World' was commissioned and funded by the UN's Environment Program. You can download a copy of the report in PDF.

As I like to think, it seems that there are a lot of opportunities, both for non-profit and profit to have a better world.  Innovation is the key to success. There's a lot to research for, a lot of problems to be solved.
