MAJOR MILESTONE: Clean energy jobs overtake the fossil fuel sector worldwide!

Let's celebrate: once in a lifetime, HISTORIC MOMENT: Clean energy now provides more employment than the fossil fuel industry, reflecting the shift that efforts to tackle climate change & the techno-economics of the renewables revolution are having on the global jobs market, according to a new report by the International Energy Agency (IEA). Clean energy, which under IEA’s definition includes nuclear power, is now estimated to account for more than half the 65 million energy sector jobs globally.

          Job security has frequently been an argument for avoiding or limiting legislation that would phase out fossil fuels. This data point shows that such thinking is simply wrong. There is a huge opportunity if governments encourage the development of clean energy, an opportunity which, unlike fossil fuels jobs, will last for several generations.

                I am interested in learning more about and decarbonizing my community one building at a time. Can you refer me to local companies in the U.S. that can help me achieve that?

                      I suggest that our discussions of decarbonization and alternative energy from water and Asmaa is the appropriate solution

                        Job security for coal mine workers should not be more important than for solar panels installators.
