Countries like the UK and the US are seeing a surge in demand for workers in green and <\/strong>eco-friendly sectors including energy, construction, transport and finance<\/strong>, The Financial Times<\/a> writes. The UK has created 250k jobs to fill the growing demand of the green sector and intends to create 2 mn more jobs by 2030. A third of job postings in the UK are currently for green jobs, including roles like land acquisition managers, waste management specialists, and sustainability analysts. Across the pond in the US, the USD 1 bn Inflation Reduction Act<\/a> allocates funding for training workers in zero-emission technologies.<\/p>\n

The challenges:<\/strong> The growth of green jobs will hopefully offset the loss of roles in fossil fuel industries, which could amount to nearly 500k in the EU. Market dynamics and consumer demand are expected to drive the growth of green jobs, but more government support, clearer policies, and better training are needed in the UK to \u201charness the potential of the transition and to manage its risks,\u201d according to the UK\u2019s Climate Change Committee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
