The economy is always changing - but lately it seems like the tide is turning against a hydrocarbon-based economy and into more of a "green" one. Whether this translates into more jobs is yet unknown. What is obvious is that our way of life must align itself with Earth's limitations.The Star Tribune recently had a small article on green economics, and I added some links to this site to assist job-seekers in finding some of these new careers.
Just a couple blocks from my home, at the Little Earth Community, they will be training interested individuals and then installing solar heaters. It appears that re-constructing our society within the confines of renewable resources could mean more jobs. But that is if more of our current resources ( hydrocarbon based) are spent ensuring this happens. We need the momentum to begin now, not after hydrocarbons are unattainable.
