Greener Pathways

The report describes the kind and quality of jobs in the clean energy economy, the skills needed to fill those jobs, and how existing plants and their workers — especially those in the beleaguered industrial heartland — can move to the center of the clean energy economy. These nuts and bolts

issues bring labor, business, community, and education together as partners in the new industrial revolution.

Greener Pathways profiles some of the best examples in the nation where work is underway to develop green jobs, including green construction career development in California, Iowa’s biofuels job-training bonds, wind technician training in Oregon; and Pennsylvania’s green re-industrialization.
