There are a lot of job opportunities for workers who want to be environmentally conscious.
First of all, they can turn to manufacturing companies dealing with recycled materials: there are a lot of different interesting jobs in this industry, for example in the marketing, accounting, human resources, and engineering departments. Another opportunity lies in collection jobs: this is great for people who like collecting garbage and picking it up across the country. 15-20 million people worldwide are waste collectors and work with common citizens, truck drivers, recycling factories. Everything can be reused if properly recycled.
Collection jobs are connected with the stores that reuse the recycled materials: this is another opportunity for those who have a green spirit. Lots of people nowadays prefer giving new life to objects instead of buying new ones. Recycling facilities are the last (but not least) job opportunity connected with recycling: for example, the study ‘More Jobs, Less Pollution’ argues that there would be 2.3 million more jobs available if the US recycled. It could be not only an environmental challenge but also an economic change for the future.
