Green

Job Training with the Environment in Mind

As individuals, organizations and countries become more and more aware of the importance of being environmentally-friendly, the ‘Go Green’ motto seems to find its way into every aspect of our lives with increasing regularity these days regardless of whether it is through the awareness of recycling, the kind of products that we choose to purchase, and off late, our jobs and careers.
And this brings us to the word ‘green job’. What could this possibly mean?

Actually, a green job is just like any other job, except for the fact that ‘how you do it’ changes. These are actions that minimize the negative impact one can have on the environment.
And how can we bring about an alteration in the actions of any individual when it comes to being eco-friendly?

Through training and educating the employees/ potential employees on environmental issues that we are facing with water, energy, waste and so on and so forth, how these problems are caused and what actions that we as individuals can work towards in order to support environmentally safe solutions, while also keeping in mind the company’s goals as well.

Obviously, this is not a one time thing, so these workshops and training sessions have to be conducted on a regular basis just like the regular health checkup that you take as this is the only way one can ensure a lasting change in one’s behavior towards the environment.

If we must be serious about cleaning up the mess that has been created over the last century, then this change should begin from within every individual if it has to count for something.
