“Many work on the front lines of the fight against global warming, for nature conservation and biodiversity, for a more sustainable planet for future generations. And you, what do you think about this? These are some of the objectives behind the emerging ‘green jobs’ market. Emerging and rapidly expanding.” — By Janaína Dallan for Um Só Planeta 

Green jobs are those aligned with the bioeconomy. They have a defined purpose and require extensive technical knowledge. These include roles in agriculture, industry, transportation, energy, food, sanitation, and construction—and even in services focused on environmental responsibility. The core aim is always to reduce carbon emissions released into the atmosphere.
